The story
The origins lie at the site of Habitation Fonds‑Préville; in 1845 Jean‑Marie Martin purchased the property and converted the sucrerie into a distillery, marking barrels with his initials (J.M). During the 20th century the estate passed to the Crassous de Médeuil family; in 2002 the local Groupe Bernard Hayot (GBH) acquired the distillery and subsequently invested in modernization while preserving production traditions.
Distillation
Copper creole column stills (two plate columns), typical rhum agricole distillation; distilled with head/final cuts around 70–73% ABV before maturation.
Ageing
Maturation in oak barrels (new or used) with in‑house management of toasting/charring; barrels vary in capacity and origin and part of the aging is managed to develop vanilla, caramel and spicy profiles.
Raw materials
- sugarcane juice (vesou)
