RHUM NEISSON - XO Full Proof 2013 - 65ème anniversaire LMDW - Peinte main par Carole Aurore - 57,3%
The Neisson Distillery is located in Carbet, Martinique. It was created in 1932 by the Neisson brothers. Jean, a chemical engineer, has devoted his professional life to improving distillation techniques. Jean's descendants, Claudine and then her son Grégory, have taken over the family business. The transition to organic farming began in 2013, and in 2016 the first AOC Martinique organic rum was offered to consumers. Gradually, all the land, over 40 hectares, experienced the same development. After years of research, Neisson uses its own native yeast strains, selected from those naturally present on the canes of the distillery. Sustainable choice of crop varieties for their adaptation to the typology of each plot, control of watering to save water, efficient treatment of effluents: today everything contributes to the production of high quality agricultural rums in harmony with the ecosystem of Neisson lands.
This edition was bottled for the 65th anniversary of La Maison du Whisky. This Neisson XO was put in barrels on the 30thof July 2013 and only 65 bottles were produced. The bottle was hand-painted by Carole Aurore, an artist/painter from Martinique.
