Montebello

The production now marketed as Montebello originates from the small Carrère distillery. The Marsolle family has run the business for generations: roots tied to cane cultivation since the late 19th century and development of the Carrère distillery from 1930. Over the years the family management modernized equipment while keeping an artisanal character and introducing barrel aging and bagasse recycling practices.

Focused on quality and on highlighting the Guadeloupe terroir: selection of hand‑harvested cane, controlled fermentation to develop aromatic complexity, and respect for traditional processing practices preserved over time by the owning family.

Petit‑Bourg, Basse‑Terre, Guadeloupe (French overseas department). Production benefits from the tropical climate and cane coming from the island's volcanic areas.

Multiple medals at the Concours Général Agricole in Paris (various years and classes: gold/silver/bronze across several editions) and awards in international competitions; additionally the Rhum Blanc Agricole 55° earned a gold medal at Spirit Selection 2022, according to the distillery's official communication.
