J.M. Canopée Rhum Agricole Hors d'age Vol.46% Cl.70

The new agricultural rum JM Canopée is dedicated to the employees and artisans who worked in the distillery in Martinique in Fonds-Preville.

The small J.M distillery was founded in 1845 in the north-east of the island of Martinique and has gained worldwide fame throughout its existence.

This top "Rhum Agricole" is distilled exclusively from the pure fermented sugar cane juice of its own lands, perched on the slopes of the volcano and facing the equator.

This allows for better maturation of the sugar cane.

The canes, harvested mechanically, are ground to extract the sugary juice, the "vesou".

This is then left to ferment, then it is distilled with a Creole double column still... historic.
