THE FAVORITE - Plaisance - Blue Cane - Vintage 2024 - 51%

La Favorite is one of the last independent distilleries in Martinique , along with Neisson. It was founded in 1842 on the remains of a sugar refinery called Les Jambettes before being renamed La Favorite in 1851. In 1909, when Henri Dormoy acquired it, he made some improvements to transform the sugar refinery into a distillery. Following a few twists and turns linked to Albert Dormoy's (Henri's son) gambling craze, La Favorite saw its activity cease in the 1930s. It would not resume production until André, his younger brother, took it over to completely renovate it in 1956. Today, La Favorite produces sugar cane on 60 hectares and also sources from small local producers ; it still operates entirely using a steam engine built in 1906. The vesou (cane wine), obtained from cane juice fermented for a long time (up to 72 hours), is distilled in 2 Creole columns , one of which is entirely made of copper and has been in operation since 1957 and the other, more modern, dating from 1986.

Plaisance is a special vintage created in 2023. The plot-based rum comes from the Plaisance plot, located in the commune of Lamentin. A single variety, it is made from Canne Bleue (B69.566) , harvested in June 2024 and distilled in July 2024. The rum was bottled in October 2024.
