The name refers to a domaine/plantation in the north of Mauritius; the line was developed as an expression of rums made from pure cane juice produced locally.
Production philosophy
As an interpreter of Mauritian rum tradition, Mauricia declares a '100% natural' approach based on the use of fresh cane juice and fermentation and distillation processes aimed at preserving the fresh, minty notes typical of the island.
