The story
The origins of Maison La Mauny date back to 1749 with the creation of the Domaine La Mauny in Rivière-Pilote. Over the centuries the estate became a benchmark for Martinique rhum agricole; the company has held the AOC "Rhum de la Martinique" since 1996. In 2019 the company's brands were acquired by the Campari Group.
Production philosophy
La Mauny aims to showcase the local terroir and the work of short‑chain sugarcane growers, combining local tradition and cellar control to express the characteristics of the tropical terroir of Rivière‑Pilote.
Territory
Warm, humid valley in the Rivière‑Pilote commune, Martinique; the microclimate and volcanic soils contribute to the character of the cane and the distillate.
Awards and recognition
Gold medals as "Rhum Producer" and "Outstanding Spirit Producer" at the International Wine & Spirit Competition (2020), as reported by the Maison.
Production method
Produces rhum agricole from pur jus of cane (vesou): the cane is largely harvested by hand, the juice fermented and then distilled in columns (the Maison uses multiple columns, including a copper column). Production also uses bagasse to generate steam for operational processes. Part of the output is kept as white rhum, while another portion is destined for ageing in wood.
Distillation
Continuous column distillation (plus a Creole‑type copper column), with fermentation of the vesou prior to distillation.
Ageing
Ageing in oak casks (foudres and barrels), with tropical maturation that accelerates the process compared to temperate climates; use of blends and sometimes vintages.
