Rhum Clement Vieux Select Barrel 70cl

Clément Rhum Vieux Select Barrel | 70cl

The Art of the Cellar: A Master Selection from Habitation Clément

Clément Rhum Vieux Select Barrel is a tribute to the legacy of Homère Clément, who transformed the Domaine de l'Acajou in 1887 into the birthplace of modern Rhum Agricole. Unlike many aged rums that follow a strict age statement, this expression is defined by the Cellar Master’s selection. Only the very best barrels from the aging cellars in Martinique are hand-picked for their unique character and harmony to create this consistent, award-winning blend.

Maturing in specially selected oak barrels (predominantly French oak), this rhum achieves a perfect balance between the raw, grassy energy of fresh sugarcane juice and the sophisticated, spicy notes of long-term maturation. It is a highly versatile "Vieux" (aged) rhum, designed to satisfy both the neat sipper and the creative mixologist.
