Habitation St. Etienne 1998 Single Cask Martinique Rhum Agricole Rum 70 cl 47.8%

Habitation Saint‑Étienne 1998 Single Cask is a rare and characterful Rhum Agricole from Martinique, distilled on 14 September 1998 and bottled on 5 February 2009. Drawn from a single cask and limited to just 600 bottles, it is a classic example of HSE’s ability to combine terroir, cask influence, and maturity into a harmonious whole.

On the nose, you’ll find the typical agricole profile: fresh sugarcane, dried fruit, gentle spice, and an elegant oak structure shaped by many years of ageing. The palate is deep and rounded, offering notes of vanilla, cocoa, candied citrus, tobacco, and a dry, almost mineral undertone that reflects both age and origin. The finish is long, warm, and balanced, with the 47.8% adding lift without overpowering the spirit.

A complex, mature, and distinctive rum for collectors and connoisseurs seeking authentic vintage agricole with clear identity and limited availability.
