NEISSON - Dekolaj - Foundations - Jeroboam - 52.50%
The Neisson Distillery is located in Carbet , Martinique . It was created in 1932 by the Neisson brothers. Jean, a chemical engineer by training, devoted his professional life to improving distillation techniques. Jean's descendants, Claudine and then his son Grégory, took up the family torch. The transition to organic farming began in 2013, and in 2016 the first organic AOC Martinique rum was offered to consumers. Gradually, all the land, more than 40 hectares, experienced the same evolution. After years of research, Neisson uses its own strains of indigenous yeasts , selected from those naturally present on the distillery's canes. Reasoned choice of crop varieties for their adaptation to the typology of each plot, control of irrigation to save water, efficient treatment of effluents: everything today contributes to the production of high-quality agricultural rums in harmony with the ecosystem of the Neisson lands.
Dekolaj is a vintage from the “ Clos Godinot ” plot located in Carbet at an altitude of 245 meters. The long fermentation lasts 4 to 5 days; the maximum duration authorized by the AOC Martinique. The name “Dekolaj” refers to the first rum of the morning in the Martinique tradition, to be swallowed in one go and followed by a large sip of fresh water.
