The story
Habitation Saint-Étienne has origins tied to an old 19th-century sugar works; the company took the name Saint-Étienne after its purchase by Amédée Aubéry in 1882, who established a distillery there. During the 20th century the property passed to the Simonnet family; the original distillery closed at the end of the 1980s. In the 1990s the brand was relaunched by the current owners (Hayot group) and commercial production of Saint‑Étienne (HSE) rhums is now carried out with the support of Distillerie du Simon, while the habitation is undergoing restoration and enhancement as local heritage.

Ageing
For the whites: controlled maturation and gradual reductions; for amber and aged rhums: ageing in wooden casks with minimum durations for the Vieux/VSOP/XO categories; use of finishes in different types of casks for some special editions.
