HSE Réserve Speciale VSOP - Rhum de la Martinique
€65.00
Rhum HSE VSOP Reserve Speciale from the excellent distillery Habitation Saint Etienne on the island of Martinique is an AOC Martinique Rhum Agricole certified rum. This rum comes from the distillation of pure fresh sugar cane juice in a Creole still and subsequently aged in American ex-bourbon oak barrels. The final blend involves the use of agricultural rums, with a minimum aging of 5 years. This rhum has a rich bouquet with notes of candied fruit - apricot, peach, melon, followed by notes of toasted almond, butterscotch, coffee and cloves. The taste is lovely with a broad, warm and spicy attack. Its softness and viscosity accentuate the length in the mouth.

The Habitation Saint-Etienne is located centrally on Martinique. For centuries sugar cane has been grown and refined on the island. In 1882 new owners of the estate transformed the sugar refinery into a distillery. The distillery has been through good and bad periods in the last century, but in 1994 new owners modernized and relaunched the distillery. Today the Habitation Saint Etienne is a modern distillery with a broad list of fine rhum products. The distillery is located in the fine historical buildings and included in the list of Historic Monuments on Martinique. The distillery is one of the last and most beautiful examples of Martinique's industrial architecture from the late 19th century.
