{"title":"Depaz Rum","description":"\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eHeralding from the paradise isle of Martinique, in the lush French West Indies, Depaz Rum is born from the rhum agricole methods of production and features the exclusive use of luxurious estate-grown fresh cut sugar cane. Depaz rums proudly hold the enviable French AOC - Appellation d’Origine Controlee – designation for Rums Agricole, confirming its strict adherence to precise standards of excellence. The Depaz estate history can be traced back to 1651 when it was established by the governor Jacques Duparquet. The AOC Rhum Agricole de la Martinique restricts production to the short best season for the cane to pack aromas, compels that all and only the fresh juice of the cane be used, contrary to 95% of the world rums using the left-overs (Molasses, crushed stalks) of the sugar refining industry. Agricole Rum belongs to the world of cognac or Armagnac, whenever Traditional Rum (also known as Industrial) is in the grappa \/ pomace world. Probably the best of Martinique rums, because on 8th of May 1902 the Montagne Pelée volcano erupted killing the 30000 inhabitants of the town of St Pierre at its foot. The Depaz plantation covered in ash could resume its sugar cane crops only many years later, but with very increased Yields and the best quality of cane juice, thanks to the fertilising properties of the layer of ash. A very small compensation for a terrible drama.\u003c\/span\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"depaz-rum-agricole-vieux-old-martinique-3yrs-45-700ml","title":"Depaz Rum Agricole Vieux (Old) Martinique 3 years 45% 700ml","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis Rum is aged for 3 years in small oak barrels, the callar master then carfully selects the best batches to make the perfect blend.
