Product History

La Digue 2022 is a unique vintage from the La Favorite distillery, produced from the 2021 harvest of the eponymous plot located just behind the distillery, along a river. This white agricultural rum is a single-varietal rum, made exclusively from reed cane, a traditional Martinique variety known for its aromatic richness. Distilled in a Creole copper column, then slowly reduced, this rum benefits from a long fermentation to extract all its complexity. It embodies the pure expression of the terroir and the meticulous know-how of La Favorite.

About the distillery

The La Favorite distillery , founded in 1842 in Fort-de-France, is one of the last family-owned and independent bastions of Martinique rum. Since its takeover in 1905 by the Dormoy family, it has perpetuated artisanal know-how with manual harvests , distillation on a Creole copper column , and on-site bottling . Each plot is worked with care, and rums from specific terroirs such as the La Digue cuvée highlight the richness of local agriculture. With a confidential production of around 500,000 liters per year, La Favorite offers rare, expressive vintages, always imbued with passion and Creole authenticity.
