Rhum J.M VSOP is an aged rhum agricole AOC Martinique, distilled from fresh sugarcane juice in a column still and aged for four years in new oak and ex-bourbon barrels with various toasting levels. It is bottled at 43% ABV.
Rhum J.M is made at Habitation Bellevue at the foot of Mount Pelée in the north of Martinique. The VSOP's mix of new and used barrels gives a golden rhum that is spiced and powerful, with exotic fruit and vanilla pod notes and a slightly toasted character.
On the palate it is complex and fruity, a step up in depth from younger agricoles while keeping the lively, grassy freshness of sugarcane juice.
A benchmark VSOP agricole, it is excellent for sipping and for a premium Ti' Punch or Old Fashioned.
Aged rum is one of the most diverse spirits in the world, shaped by the sugarcane, the still and the warm climates where it matures, which speed up the interaction between spirit and wood.
