Leading spirits retailer La Maison du Whisky has just announced the launch of the anticipated Neisson Zetwal top end expression in the Singapore market.

"Zetwal" is the Martinique Creole word for "star", a reference to the blend of prized vintage rhums from the 2000, 2005, 2012 and 2013 vintages that have been serving as reserves for the Neisson Distillery's most exclusive Armada collection. 

The goal of this expression is to showcase the best of Neisson's rhums, and just as importantly highlight Neisson's expertise in blending and cask management.

The new expression will be housed in a magnificent crystalline bottle designed by Sebastian Schalchli of Le Secret Magnifique design agency and is manufactured by Portuguese crystal maker Vista Alegre. It will also come in a wooden box from Jura. 

The component rhums used to create the expression were distilled from Neisson’s savalle creole column still – the inaugural release is bottled in 2023 at 49.4% ABV and limited to 250 bottles only. However this is slated to be an annual release.
