At the beginning of the Trois-Rivières rum, Nicolas Fouquet (superintendent of finances of the crown) attributed himself a gigantic 2000ha concession in Martinique in 1660. Following his disgrace, many owners will succeed each other before the land is bought by 3 sugar mills in 1770. The estate is equipped with a distillery in 1785 under the wishes of the family Marraud des Grottes. Today, the Chevrillon group is at the head of this distillery, although the latter has closed since 2004, the activity having been transferred to the Mauny. Trois-Rivière has been offered its own brand with a vintage range that is no stranger to the rise of its notoriety. Trois-Rivières has produced the world's largest old-fashioned vintage rums, said to be among the finest connoisseurs (to mention just a few examples, we will remember the 1953, 1964, 11969 or 1977 vintages).
The words are missing to evoke such a treasure ... The vintage rum 1953 vintage Trois-Rivières is myth, it is a little holy grail of rum. The very good years, the cellar master selects the exceptional lots for a separate bottling ... Apart from, we can say ... this rum is apart, it is considered by the most knowledgeable amateurs and professionals as one ... see the world's largest vintage old agricultural rum ...
A rare bottle, very rare that Clos des Millésimes is proud to have. Lucky one who will have the chance to soak the lips one day. An ideal gift for someone born in 1953 or for a great collector of agricultural rum.
