Description

A worthy heir of the great HSE vintages, this Single Cask 2006 has received the full attention of our cellar master to offer you a new balance between power, roundness, and aromatic complexity. Each bottled batch has been carefully selected from a unique 400-litre French oak barrel, identified by the double numbering of the bottles.

Tasting Notes:

The nose opens with an explosion of aromas, where the empyreumatic notes of cocoa, coffee, and blond tobacco intermingle in a fruity universe of prunes, quince, and cooked fruits. The round and delicious palate offers a soft and elegant attack before stretching into a long, fruity, and delicately spicy finish.

About The Producer

Habitation Saint-Etienne (HSE) was one of the main Martinique sugar factories during the 19th century. Converted as other sugar factories into a Rhum Agricole distillery at the end of the 19th century, its distillery activities were ended in 1988. Rum is since distilled at the Simon distillery not far from the Francois village. Blending, maturing, and barrel aging activities are still conducted at the Habitation Saint-Etienne domain. The AOC Rhum Agricole de la Martinique restricts production to the short best season for the cane to pack aromas, compels that all and only the fresh juice of the cane be used, contrary to 95% of the world rums using the left-overs (Molasses, stalks) of the sugar refining industry. Agricole Rum belongs to the world of cognac or Armagnac, whereas Traditional Rum (also known as Industrial) is in the grappa/pomace world. Habitation St Etienne is famous for its Strong Bourbon cask finish but for its unusual cask finish in Islay, Pedro Jimenez, Oloroso, and Sauternes.
