A rich, complex, Agricole Caribbean Rum that will make you dream of Cognac.
Clément Rhum is the famous French sounding producer of Caribbean Rum. Located on the Island of Martinique — then a French colony — Homère Clément bought the local Domain de l’Agricole sugar cane plantation during the sugar crisis in 1887. Knowing that cheap sugar-beet imports form South American would make raw sugar unprofitable for years to come, he transformed the plantation and production facility into one of the more famous Rum distilleries in the Caribbean.
Let’s get right to it — Clément 10 Year Old Rhum is a damn tasty Agricole Rhum with a delicate, yet complex flavor profile. It is aged a full decade in a combination or re-charred ex-Bourbon American oak and virgin Limousin oak casks. This develops flavors that will remind you of fine Cognac, but with a sweeter palate. It makes a great sipping Rum, but here’s an insider tip — try this double-gold medal winner as a replacement for Cognac in your favorite cocktails like a Sidecar or a Sazerac.
