Today the Martinique rhum agricole (a term for rum, produced from sugar cane juice) is the only one in the rhum category with the AOC designation. AOC (Appellation d’Origine Contrle) is the French variant of certification for geographically protected wine, spirit, and food, which ensures the quality, authenticity, and character of the rhum. After the sugar cane is harvested, it’s taken to the mills in order to extract the juice. After filtration, the juice is fermented and distilled. Both unaged “Blanc” and aged “Old” expressions are produced, the latter employing barrels that used to hold bourbon, cognac, sherry, and whiskey. The award-winning Rhum Blanc Agricole is the one that established the reputation of HSE. It’s a classic that comes in an 80 and 110-proof version. The latter is a powerful, bold, and intense yet fresh spirit with fruity, floral, and spice notes that fit well into a number of cocktails ? especially with that higher alcohol content.
