Rhum agricole

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rhum Séverin, a rhum agricole from Guadeloupe

Rhum agricole is a variant of rum from so-called 'agricultural production'. It differs from normal rum primarily in that it is made from freshly squeezed sugar cane juice and only accounts for around 3% of total rum production.

Rhum agricole is produced in the French Antilles ( Martinique , Guadeloupe ) and also in Haiti , in French Guiana , La Palma and in the Indian Ocean on Réunion and Mauritius . According to AOC regulations, it has so far only been produced in Martinique, Guadeloupe and La Réunion , which are part of the French overseas departments .
