La Favorite Cuveè speciale Exploration N°8 Vol.46% Cl.70

The new Cuvée Exploration No. 8, bottled in 2024, is finally available in Italy.

For La Favorite, this is the eighth creation in a brand new, innovative range called Exploration, and this edition is limited to just 2,200 bottles!

Cuvée Exploration No. 8 pays homage to distillery owner Franck Dormoy's desire to explore new combinations of rums aged in different barrels.

La Favorite Exploration No. 8 rum is an AOC amber agricole rum from Martinique distilled in July 2021.

This brut de cask is aged for 36 months in seven new French oak barrels that previously held highly aromatic Alsatian Eau-de-vie.

It benefits from aging under the tropical sun with long heating phases at high temperatures.

La Favorite is one of the last independent distilleries in Martinique, along with Neisson, and still distills today using steam-powered machinery dating back to the 1800s.

The La Favorite distillery prepares its rum following the purest traditional recipes for Martinique rum production, namely in select oak barrels, in this case produced exclusively by Tonnellerie Navarre.

It is in these barrels, carefully selected for their ability to release aromas of maturation and evolution, that this La Favorite Cuvée La Favorite Exploration No. 8 rum will acquire the specific aromas of French oak and Alsatian distillate, generously endowing its unique bouquet.

The Rhum Agricole di La Couveè La Favorite Exploration No. 8 is innovative, surprising, and captivating at first sip.

Furthermore, the beautiful transparent bottle of rum from the La Favorite distillery is embellished with a sealing wax seal and a serial number.
