Providence 3 Year 2019 Haitian Pure Single Rum represents the first aged rum of the Distillerie de Port-au-Prince. The particularity of this rum lies in its elaboration, based on traditional methods: it is produced from syrup from an ancestral Cristalline sugar cane variety. The sugar cane comes from the fields Michel Sajous, located in Saint-Michel de l’Attalaye, 150 kilometers north of the capital.
Fermentation is carried out using selected yeasts and dunder from previous distillations, allowing for the development of a particular aromatic complexity. The must obtained after fermentation is distilled in two stages in a copper still, heated in a bain-marie, designed by German boilermaker Muller. It was also matured in several type of casks: ex-Caroni, ex-Cognac and ex-Whisky, and then reduced at 52% before bottling.
