Production Notes

Rhum J.M sits at the base of Mount Pelee, an active volcano on the north side of the island of Martinique. Rhum J.M is made using fresh pressed sugarcane juice, as is typical in Martinique and required to use the AOC Rhum Agricole designation. Their sugarcane grows around the distillery, benefitting from volcanic soil, and goes from harvesting to fermenation in 1 hour. Rhum J.M VSOP is aged for three years in new American oak then rested in a combination of ex-Bourbon and French oak an additional year before being blended and bottled.
