La Favorite La Digue 2021 is an AOC Martinique agricultural rum produced by one of the island's last two independent, family-run distilleries. It is the result of both mono-parcel and mono-varietal selection.
Located on the riverbank just behind the distillery, the La Digue plot grows 4 hectares of reed cane (B59.92), an emblematic variety favored by many growers. The canes are cut by hand and transported to the distillery for grinding by the mills. This process is powered by the legendary steam engine dating back to 1906.
The vesou benefited from a long fermentation before being distilled in a copper Creole column in June 2021. The rum was then brewed and reduced for many months in stainless steel tanks, before 8500 bottles were bottled in January 2022.
