NEISSON - Tatanka Collection - White Rum - The Cutter Pink Shirt and White Hat - Vintage 2020 - 50%
Tatanka is an iconic artisanal company from Martinique, renowned for its hand-painted artworks on various media, notably on rum bottles. Since 1996, a talented Martinican artist has been painting directly on glass in a unique naive art style. These creations depict authentic life scenes from the Neisson distillery, paying tribute to the dedication and passionate work of the men and women involved in crafting these exceptional rums. Each special edition of the Tatanka collection offers three different and exclusive illustrations, making each bottle a true collectible work of art.
The Neisson Distillery, located in the heart of Carbet in Martinique, was founded in 1932 by the Neisson brothers. A pioneer in its field, Jean Neisson, a chemical engineer by training, devoted his entire career to perfecting traditional distillation techniques. Today, this expertise is carried on by Jean's descendants, Claudine and then her son Grégory, who uphold strong family values. Since 2013, a decisive turning point occurred with the adoption of certified organic farming. In 2016, the distillery launched its very first organic AOC Martinique rum, a product that appeals to consumers seeking authenticity and quality. Gradually, more than 40 hectares of land have been fully converted to organic farming, highlighting Neisson's sustainable commitment to environmental preservation.
After years of rigorous research, Neisson now cultivates its own exclusive strains of indigenous yeasts, carefully selected from those naturally present on the sugar canes grown at the distillery. This innovative choice ensures a unique fermentation and contributes to the aromatic complexity of the rums. The thoughtful selection of crop varieties, perfectly adapted to the specific typology of each plot, the strict control of irrigation to optimize water savings, as well as the efficient and ecological treatment of effluents, are all practices that illustrate Neisson's philosophy: producing agricultural rums of exceptional quality in complete harmony with the surrounding natural ecosystem.
