Amber Rum 45° - 70cl

Distillerie Longueteau

Longueteau Amber Rum is made from white rum and stored for eighteen months in oak barrels that previously contained cognac. There, it acquires a light tawny color, a delicate honeyed, cinnamon, and vanilla note, supported by a subtle acidity, while retaining a hint of the freshness of white rum. It's an all-terrain vintage that will delight rum lovers, but also bartenders, cooks, pastry chefs, and even those with a cold who will be delighted to be able to make themselves a grog.

The Longueteau distillery, located in Capesterre-Belle-Eau (Guadeloupe), is the oldest distillery on the island still in operation. It has the distinction of being entirely self-sufficient in sugar cane production, which it uses to obtain its magnificent terroir agricultural rums. Agricultural rum, we should point out, is made from pure sugar cane juice, unlike many other Caribbean rums, which are produced from cane molasses. It is a specialty of the French Antilles. The estate is currently in the hands of François Longueteau, a distiller since 1979. Production is, as it was originally, artisanal and traditional, but the sugarcane terroirs are developed using plot-by-plot methods—this is Longueteau's unique feature, the first distillery on the island to adopt this approach. Two varieties of sugarcane, blue cane and red cane, are cultivated, as well as fruits from the Guadeloupe region. Longueteau rums and the resulting preparations (punches, shrubberies, etc.) are fine, aromatic, deep, and fragrant.
