It began aging in American oak on the island before moving to Europe in 2021, finishing in a once-used bourbon barrel — barrel No. 15 yielded just 225 bottles, bottled non-chill filtered with no additives and label art by James Tuer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 57.6% (115.2 proof)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 700mL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAge:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6 years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Martinique, French Antilles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBase:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fresh cane juice\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStill:\u003c\/strong\u003e Column still\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutturn:\u003c\/strong\u003e 225 bottles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Story\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCane juice rums from Martinique are usually met through the French AOC agricole tradition, which makes a single barrel selected by an American independent bottler a genuine curiosity.
