Tatanka is a renowned artisanal company from Martinique, specializing in creating hand-painted designs on various surfaces, offering a true work of art on each bottle. Since 1996, a Martinican artist has been painting directly on the glass in a style of naive art, illustrating authentic life scenes from the distillery. These original artworks pay tribute to the know-how and passionate work of the men and women involved in the production of Neisson rums. Each special edition features three unique illustrations, making each bottle an exceptional collector's item.
The Neisson Distillery, located in the heart of Carbet in Martinique, is a historic reference, founded in 1932 by the Neisson brothers. Jean, a chemical engineer by training, revolutionized traditional distillation techniques. Today, his descendants, Claudine and then her son Grégory, continue the family tradition with passion and high standards. Since 2013, Neisson has committed to organic farming, and in 2016 launched the first certified organic rum with the AOC Martinique label, ensuring sustainable and environmentally respectful production. Over 40 hectares of land thus see their ecosystem preserved and enhanced.
After years of research, Neisson exclusively uses its own strains of indigenous yeasts, carefully selected from those naturally present on the distillery's sugar canes. The reasoned selection of crop varieties adapted to the typology of each plot, rigorous control of irrigation to optimize water consumption, as well as efficient treatment of effluents, demonstrate Neisson's strong commitment to responsible and quality production. The result: exceptional agricultural rums, crafted in perfect harmony with the ecosystem of their lands, symbolizing a unique and preserved terroir.
This single cask from 2007, bottled as a single cask for Velier in 2016, bears the evocative name "Le Bus Rose". This exceptional old rum, patiently aged in cask, was bottled at a remarkable strength of 59%, revealing an intense and complex aromatic richness, ideal for discerning enthusiasts and passionate collectors.
