The juice ferments for 72 hours before distillation in a copper Creole column still, and the family's reserve keeps the cane intensity of Marie-Galante's powerful blancs inside a velvety, oak-aged frame. It is available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProof \/ ABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 84 proof (42% ABV)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750mL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAge:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6 years in 200L oak barrels, tropical aging\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBase:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fresh-pressed juice of four local cane varieties, 72-hour ferment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Distillerie Poisson, Marie-Galante\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Guadeloupe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Family Reserve of Marie-Galante\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDistillerie Poisson, founded in 1916 by Edouard Rameau and named for Pere Jean-Baptiste Labat, is the oldest distillery on Marie-Galante, working a 1,300-acre estate of sugarcane fields, aging warehouses and one of the Caribbean's oldest stills.
