The La Favorite 2021 Martinique Brut 2 Colonnes Unaged rum is an exceptional agricole rum that epitomizes the artisanal production methods and expertise of the La Favorite distillery. Distilled in April 2021, this exquisite rum uses two Creole columns: a 1957 copper column and a 1986 combination copper and stainless steel column. The rums are then blended and matured in small stainless steel vats for 11 months, culminating in a February 2022 bottling of 4000 individually numbered bottles.
The second edition label is adorned with a stunning illustration by Lucas Vallerie, a local artist who captures the essence of the distillery. The artwork features the legendary steam engine powered by the combustion of bagasse, the fibrous residue of sugar cane.
This rum is renowned for its round and rich texture, delivering a luscious mid-palate with smooth vegetal and spicy notes. The aroma is filled with ripe sugarcane with a sweet, mellow flesh that grows more intense over time. On the palate, it presents a lively and enticing flavor profile with impeccable balance, culminating in a long, rich finish marked by vegetal and floral nuances.
The La Favorite Brut 2 Colonnes is a 'brut de colonne,' meaning it is non-reduced and bottled directly from the still. Each bottle is sealed with wax and the distillery employs eco-friendly packaging, using labels, counter-labels, and boxes made from 95% sugar cane fibers and 5% hemp and flax fibers.
