Père Labat Distillery
La Père Labat Distillery: the oldest in Marie-Galante
Located in Grand Bourg on the island of Marie-Galante, Père Labat is the oldest distillery on Marie-Galante, where 100% of the cane is cut by hand.
Founded in 1726 by Demoiselle Poisson as a small sugar mill, it wasn't until the 19th century that the estate was bought by the Rameau family and transformed into a distillery.
The last sugar-cane island in the Caribbean, Marie-Galante's limestone soil offers immense potential for the distilleries located there.
Père Labat's plantation is made up of classic and organic cane.
Features:
>> The water used to make Père-Labat’s rum comes from a spring on the estate
>> 100% of the cane is cut by hand
>> The two columns used are Creole type and distil at 70.7
4 ranges of rums are produced at the Père Labat distillery:
- white rums matured in oak casks
- vintage old agricultural rums
- aged rums with sweet, oaky notes
- liqueurs, the ideal refreshment for hot days
