Rhum J.M Agricole Blanc 110 White Rum

About Rhum J.M Agricole Blanc 110 White Rum

High proof, baby.

Rhum J.M Blanc 110 Proof is a true expression of character and terroir, characterized by the volcanic soil of Mount Pelee and the humid climate of northern Martinique. This degree of proof is typical in Martinique and only accentuates the potent fruit and mineral qualities of this beautiful spirit.

Tasting Notes for Rhum J.M Agricole Blanc 110 White Rum

Overwhelming aromas of fresh lime, honey, and cane flower are balanced with more savory vegetal notes and a beautiful expression of anise – unique to Rhum J.M. Round and sweet on the palate, honey and cane flowers really shine through. The stewed banana and grilled pineapple, signatures of Rhum J.M, are ever present along with the unmistakable vegetal and mineral undertones.  Expect more heat than a typical rhum agricole, thanks to the higher proof.

Suggested Serves

Rhum J.M Blanc pairs beautifully with lime and is perfect to use for classic rum cocktails like the mojito and daiquiri. It shines most in the traditional cocktail of Martinique: the Ti Punch.

Classic Ti Punch

• 1.5 oz Rhum J.M Blanc 110
• 1 lime coin, squeezed into glass
• A spoonful of sugar in the raw or sirop de canne
• Method: Add ingredients to the glass and aerate with a swizzle stick or spoon to release lime oils and bring flavors together.

The Ti Punch is traditionally sipped without ice, but as the saying goes in Martinique, chacun prepare sa propre mort! This cocktail is endlessly adaptable and meets the moment perfectly every time. 

Production Notes

Rhum J.M boasts a unique microclimate. The estate sugarcane sits at the foot of Mount Pelee, an active volcano on the north side of Martinique. Located on the east side of the volcano, Rhum J.M has an Atlantic sea breeze blowing hot winds, volcanic soil, rainforest, and high cloud cover. The water used to make Rhum J.M comes from the Riviere Roche and is naturally filtered by volcanic rock. Plenty of banana trees grow together with sugarcane. All this comes together to create notes of banana, anise, white pepper and minerality that can be found in all Rhum J.M rhums.

Rhum J.M is made using fresh pressed sugarcane juice, as is typical in Martinique and required of the AOC Rhum Agricole designation. Their sugarcane grows around the distillery, benefitting from volcanic soil, and goes from harvesting to fermenation in 1 hour. Distilled once on a creole column still, Rhum J.M Blanc spends 6 months resting in stainless steel tanks before being bottled.

Founder Facts
