Longueteau Distillery

A unique taste, a true tasting white rum. The nose is powerful and extraordinarily fragrant. On the palate, it has great length with notes of white fruits. This white agricultural rum is made from a blend of blue and red cane juice. With little stirring, it retains the vegetal notes of its terroir of origin. A seven-month aging period in barrels gives it its finesse. Perfect for an exceptional ti-punch (lime, a hint of brown sugar, and an ice cube), it nevertheless deserves to be enjoyed on its own and without artifice.

To find out more
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.
