The cellar master of Mezan travels to the Caribbean in search of hidden treasures, these intact, unsweetened, uncolored and unfiltered rums. All Mezan rums are aged in old Bourbon casks until they reach their optimum level of maturity. Bourbon casks affect the final taste of the rum the least. The decision was deliberate, aimed at optimally preserving the particular identity and singular character of each rum. The rums are aged in two stages; first in the hot and humid climate of the tropics, then in Europe to complete the process. The second stage proves advantageous, because it causes less oxidation and avoids an excessive concentration of esters.
