Rum Trois Rivieres Vsop

Rhum Agricole Trois Rivieres VSOP Reserve Speciale is aged in French oak barrels for more than 5 years. This rum, with its evolved notes, is excellent neat or mixed. Martinique is one of the most beautiful islands in the Caribbean and the birthplace of the famous agricultural rums. Since 1996, being considered a French metropolitan territory, its rums have been able to boast the prestigious territorial designation 'A.O.C. Martinique'. The Trois Rivières plantation is one of the oldest in Martinique: it dates back to the mid-17th century, when Nicolas Fouquet, Superintendent of Finances for King Louis XIV, wanted to make it the largest estate on the island (220 hectares). In those days, sugarcane—the raw material for agricultural rums—was crushed using windmills of the time: this is why, even today, the mill emblem is prominently displayed on every bottle of Trois Rivières. The bottles and labels of Trois Rivières rums have recently been redesigned: a touch of sea blue distinguishes the new packaging, almost as if to underscore the marine personality of the products, whose raw material is sourced just a short distance from the island's stunning Caribbean beaches. This is the fruit of the Master of Cellar's innovative spirit. The aromatic harmony of Trois Rivières VSOP Reserve Speciale stems from the unique blend of its component rums, regularly refined by our Master Distiller. Aged in oak barrels for over five years, it is distinguished by a remarkable roundness and smoothness on the palate.
