J.M 1992

Crassous de Médeuil exploit the three principal agricultural cultures of Martinique: banana (75 ha), Pineapple (6 ha) and the Cane with sugar (55 ha). It is the only farm to proceed thus by making rotation of culture. The presence of these three cultures and the distillation of JM on the same exploitation is unique in Martinique and even in the Caribbean. Since November 1996, Rhums Agricoles of Martinique obtained the Controlled Label of origin Martinique.

The cultivable surface of the Bellevue dwelling is 150 ha, totality in soil A.O.C. From China, the cane crossed Asia (XIllé century) before being cultivated in North Africa, then in Spain, and the Portuguese islands. In 1493, Christophe Colomb introduced it into the Caribbean. It arrived in Martinique in 1635. This plant is from the family of graminaceous (poacée), the Saccharurn kind, and a tropical culture per excellence. It is cultivated for its stems from which one draws saccharose with crystallizable sugar. In addition to saccharose, the fermentable sugars (glucose, fructose) contained in the juice allow the manufacture of Rum. At JM, the cut of the cane with sugar begins on March 15 to finish at the end of June (the months richest in saccharose are April and May).

All the canes are collected with the machine. The entire control of the culture of the sugar canes and those collected without mechanical burning of way enable us to very quickly crush them in our three mills less than one hour after the cut.

Intense copper color with mahogany reflections, the rhum JM 1992 Hors d'âge is a treasure just for its visual qualities as much as its flavor profile and gastronomic qualities. Its perfect balance, complexity, and harmony satisfy the most discerning connoisseur's palate.
