Depaz Rhum Tres Agricole Vieux VSOP 45% Vol. 0,7l

Depaz Rhum Tres Agricole Vieux VSOP is an aged Rhum Agricole from Martinique that embodies the time-honored tradition of producing sugarcane distillates on this French Caribbean island. Unlike classic molasses-based rum, Rhum Agricole is made from fresh sugarcane juice, which preserves the raw material’s original character particularly well. This bottling is produced by the Depaz Distillery, whose estate is located at the foot of the Montagne Pelee volcano near Saint-Pierre. The sugarcane grown there benefits from the region’s volcanic soils and tropical climate. After the freshly harvested sugarcane is processed and distilled, the rhum is given sufficient time to age, allowing the characteristic Agricole style to blend with the influences of the wood.

As a Rhum Vieux Agricole VSOP, this Depaz bottling represents a mature style in which the fresh sugarcane base is complemented by spicy and wood-influenced notes. Depaz is one of Martinique’s most traditional producers and is closely linked to the history of sugarcane cultivation around Montagne Pelee. The combination of fresh sugarcane juice, Caribbean origins, and several years of barrel aging gives the Depaz VSOP its unique position within the category of aged Agricole rums. With a robust 45% alcohol content, the Depaz Rhum Tres Agricole Vieux VSOP also offers enough body to be enjoyed neat and is an excellent choice for those looking to discover the aged Martinique style. It is bottled in a 0.7-liter bottle.
