Poisson is the oldest distillery on Marie-Galante, set on a 1,300-acre estate, and Hors d’Age is the top of its regular range — eight Caribbean years cost each cask roughly 40% of its volume to evaporation.

Hand-cut cane is crushed within hours, fermented on fresh juice and run through a red-copper Creole column still dating to 1916.
