The Longueteau family arrived in Guadeloupe in 1766, it is towards the end of the XIXth century that Louis-Philippe Henry Longueteau acquires part of the Marquisat of Sainte-Marie, then put on sale at the auction following a crisis of the sugar industry.

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 at their full maturity. Following a fermentation of 48h "without special effects" (no antifoam, no acidifying or other additions ...), the juices are distilled in a column Savalle 28 trays.
