Founded by the brothers Adrien and Hildebert-Pamphile, known as Jean, the NEISSON distillery is still family-owned today. The Neisson family is the only estate on Martinique with its own sugar cane fields. In 1932, by decree of the governor, the family founded a distillery named Carbet on the Thieubert estate. In the early days, Adrien took care of the fields and his brother studied chemistry in Paris to establish a foundation for distillation. Since then, the knowledge of the two brothers has been passed down from generation to generation. EAN 3287480001216

As part of the Continental Blockade by Napoleon in 1806, it was forbidden to continue producing sugar on the French Caribbean islands; the aim was to strengthen domestic sugar beet and put an end to cane sugar imported from England and Spain. This posed a challenge for the farmers on the islands who were already producing rum
because they were no longer allowed to produce the by-product of sugar production, molasses, which they needed to make rum. They experimented briefly and very quickly discovered that it could also be made directly from pressed sugar cane juice. With the advantage that the minerals stored by the sugar cane in the stalk and therefore also in the juice,
were also reflected in the flavor of the rhum, known as terroir. Over time, with further rules, this became Rhum Agricole: No sugar may be added.   No artificial coloring. Fresh sugar cane juice must be used. Processing must begin no later than 24h after harvest. Oak barrels or stainless steel tanks must be used for aging

At NEISSON, cask aging takes place directly and exclusively on Martinique,
so it is a tropically aged rhum. The basic structure of the distillate is
clearly present at all age levels; NEISSON works with different
alcohol profiles to tease out the various aromas from the cask, a
exciting and unique way (throughout the Caribbean) to age rhum.

The sugar cane is grown on the northern Caribbean terroir, whose
soils are weakly developed, on volcanic pumice from the Pelee Mountains, with a sandy-clay texture. These plots are characterized
by intense sunlight and low rainfall with a very
high diurnal temperature range during Lent (harvest season). The
minerality of the soils is reflected in the aroma of the rhum.

Sweet grass (like corn, wheat, oats, etc.) has been cultivated by humans since around 5000 BC, initially as a fodder plant and later used as a source of sweetness. From three
places in the world (Papua New Guinea, South China, and India), its journey westward begins via the Silk Road, ultimately reaching the Mediterranean around 500 AD. On his third voyage, Christopher Columbus successfully brings seedlings of this plant with him, and thus begins its triumphant spread throughout Central America. The three bases for rum production are obtained from sugar cane: fresh sugar cane juice, sugar cane syrup (Virgin Cane Honey or Melao), or molasses. One of these bases is fermented and distilled. If distillation takes place at least twice, it is called rum; before that it is Aguardiente (firewater), which is aged in wooden barrels. In the wooden barrels, the rum develops additional aromas; depending on where it is stored, this is referred to as tropical aging (in an island climate at sea level), temperate aging (near the place of production and often well above sea level), or continental aging (transported, for example, to Europe). After aging, the liquid is reduced to the chosen drinking strength and bottled

NEISSON is a small rum distillery in Le Carbet in the northwest of the island of Martinique, about ten kilometers south of the old capital Saint Pierre and within sight of the Mont Pelée volcano. The distillery is located only a few hundred meters from the sea and is picturesquely surrounded by sugar cane fields. NEISSON alongside La Favorite in Fort de France, is the only family-owned distillery on Martinique.
