CLÉMENT Rhum Blanc Agricole AOC – White Rum (40%)

HK$280.00

100% Rhum Agricole = 100% Cane juice

During the harvest period between February and June, the freshly cut sugarcane is crushed to extract its juice called «vesou». This juice is then fermented for 24 to 36 hours in open-air vats at the distillery.

The wine or «grappe», obtained by fermentation of the pure sugarcane juice, is distilled at 75° maximum (according to the AOC rules) in order to preserve most of the sugarcane natural aromas.

This results in a fresh, floral (white flowers), citrusy and herbal flavor profile coming from the different varieties of sugarcanes used during production.

Perfect for Ti’Punch cocktails!

Rhum Clément

Rhum Clément has been established in 1887 when Homère Clément purchased a 43-hectare sugar plantation.

Homère mimicked the distillers of the great Armagnac to perfect his method of rum production known today as Rhum Agricole.

Nowadays, Clément has 8,000 barrels patiently aged in their cellars and is a leading producer exporting to 80 different countries.

Around 8% of the volume of each barrel is lost every year due to « evaporation » (or Angel share).

The aging is also unique. It is going 2.5 times faster than in Europe or Kentucky due to the high temperature and humidity.
