Let’s talk about Rhum Dillon Dark 70cl

More questions

Rhum Dillon Dark is an eminent example of agricoles rum from the picturesque island of Martinique, renowned for its heritage in producing the highest quality rum. With a capacity of 70cl, this dark rum stands out for its deep amber color and an intensely rich aromatic profile.

The distillation uses only pure sugarcane juice, giving this rum a distinctive complexity and remarkable smoothness on the palate. The predominant notes are those of toasted caramel, vanilla, and a subtle hint of exotic spices, balanced by a delicate nuance of wood due to its aging in oak barrels.

Ideal for sipping neat, to appreciate all its nuances, or as a base for refined cocktails that require a rum with well-defined characteristics and a robust body. Rhum Dillon Dark is recommended for connoisseurs seeking an authentic experience deeply rooted in the Caribbean tradition of rum distillation.

The story
The company's origins are historically linked to an old habitation sucrière in the Fort-de-France area; the Maison has documented roots dating back to the 18th century and the official site indicates the house's activity from 1779. During the 20th century the site shifted from a sugar operation to the production of rhum agricoles. The distillery has been acquired over time by industry groups (the brand's commercial history is also connected to Bardinet and later the La Martiniquaise group). In 2006 on-site distillation was suspended and Dillon's distillation column was transferred to the Depaz distillery for production; the rhums continue to be aged and stored in Dillon's historic facilities in Fort-de-France.
Distillation
Column distillation typical of rhum agricole; Dillon's historic column was transferred to the Depaz distillery for production after 2006.
Ageing
Aging carried out in the Maison's historic cellars in Fort-de-France; sources do not specify detailed types of casks.
