Description

Trois Rivieres traces its estate back to 1660 and has made rhum agricole for over a century, today distilled at the La Mauny site in southern Martinique. As a 1974 millesime from fresh-pressed sugar cane juice, this is a deep vintage release from the world's only rum AOC, where added sugar is banned and long tropical ageing does the work.

Bottled at 45%, it carries its years gently. Aged Martinique agricole of this age typically trades the grassy snap of youth for vanilla, baking spice, soft oak and dried fruit, drier and more elegant than a sweet molasses rum. Expect a refined, after-dinner style pour rather than a heavy hitter.
