Bougainville VS 3 years is a molasses rum produced in Mauritius .
The molasses is cold-fermented at a temperature between 18°C and 24°C for 10 to 14 days , a duration typical of long fermentations . The resulting must is then distilled in a hybrid still and reduced to 65% ABV before being aged. The rum then rests for a minimum of three years in 600-liter casks that previously held Oloroso and Pedro Ximénez Sherry wines.
