La Favorite distillery: Martinique’s family-run agricole icon with steam-powered tradition
La Favorite rum stands as one of Martinique’s last independent, family-run producers. Born from a 19th‑century sugar estate, the distillery still crushes cane with a historic steam engine and distills fresh sugarcane juice on Creole columns to craft authentic AOC agricole.

From crystalline blancs to long‑aged icons like La Flibuste, La Favorite balances terroir-driven freshness with pastry-like depth, winning over curious newcomers and seasoned collectors alike. Signature series such as Cœur de Canne, Millésime and Brut 2 Colonnes showcase precise fermentation, deft cuts and tropical aging that define true Martinique rum.
