The Longueteau family arrived in Guadeloupe in 1766, it was towards the end of the 19th century that Louis-Philippe Henry Longueteau acquired part of the Marquisate of Sainte-Marie, then put up for auction following a crisis of the sugar industry. A few years later, in 1895, he decided to purchase the Esperance home to move from being a sugar factory to a distillery.
Today it is François Longueteau who takes care of the house, the only distillery of Guadeloupe whose owner is at the same time the farmer and the master distiller. His rums are 100% derived from his own sugar cane. The juices are harvested and crushed the same day to their full maturity, following a 48h fermentation "without special effects" (no antifoam, no acidifying or other additions ...), the juices are then distilled in a column Savalle 28 trays.
The new range of Rhums Longueteau Harmonie comes in three references "Prélude" (amber rum), "Symphony" (old rum) and "Concerto" (very old rum). Like all the novelties, she had to wait for the approval of the entire Longueteau family (so François and his sons Nicolas and François). The range Harmonie, is the result of two years of reflection that will have succeeded, among others, this rum Prelude; a Full Proof published in 1400 copies.
Like its brothers in the Harmonie range, it takes its name from a form of musical composition. This first born in the range is called Prélude, a form often used for musical introduction, which refers here to an introduction to the Harmonie range. To achieve this result, it took several white Longueteau rum 50 ° of different vintages and a few years of patience to age them in new oak casks.
