Le Vieux Rum is produced by the Neisson distillery, the smallest distillery in Martinique nestled on the slopes of Mount Pelée. Its exceptional terroir imparts a unique and distinct taste to the spirits essential for crafting Neisson Rums. It is a blend of carefully selected batches aged for 3 to 9 years in French oak barrels.
Nose: Fruity with blended aromas of wood, vanilla, honey, and dried fruits.
Palate: Rich, lively with very smooth tannins.
Finish: Expansive and silky.
Neisson, the smallest independent distillery in Martinique, was founded in the Carbet municipality by the Neisson brothers in 1931, Adrien and Jean, each with specific roles. Adrien oversees the operation, and his brother Jean, an engineer by training, is responsible for the transformation and initiated the installation of the famous Savalle copper column still in 1958. In 1995, the Neisson distillery changed hands, and at that time, Claudine Vernant Neisson, the heiress of the distillery, along with her son, transformed the distillery, bringing it back to life in 3 years. Success continues to grow, and in 2013, the two innovators decide to produce organic agricultural rums, in perfect harmony with the surrounding ecosystem.
