Rum Trois Rivieres Ambre

Rhum Agricole Trois Rivieres Ambre' is aged in whisky barrels. 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 entitled to the prestigious 'A.O.C. Martinique' designation. The Trois Rivières plantation is one of the oldest in Martinique, dating 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). At that time, sugar cane—the raw material for agricultural rums—was crushed using windmills of the time: this is why, even today, the mill emblem is clearly 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. Born from the Master of Cellar's innovative spirit, Trois Rivières Ambré Agricole Finish Single Malt Whisky is characterized by its originality, modern flavors, and a remarkable crispness on the palate. Matured for 12 to 18 months in accordance with the Martinique AOC regulations, this rum benefited from a final six-month aging in Single Malt Whisky casks from French Rozelieures distilleries before being bottled. The distinctive warm notes of honey, toast, and the unique caramel of this amber-colored rum agricole combine with the roundness and subtle peaty flavors characteristic of a great single malt. Aged in new French oak barrels, old cognac casks, and old bourbon barrels. Bottled in Martinique, all Trois Rivières rums are filtered at room temperature, without the use of caramel.
