FANCHONNA POSE ARMATURES MARTINIQUAISES

The guided visit was great. We saw the old factory with the ancient machines and the huge modern containers and bottle installations. The grounds are big and our guide explained us a lot about the history, fabrication and development of the local rum business. It was really nice. The tasting was also very good. We tried three different rums but we could have tried more. Every drink was explained during the tasting. We were also invited to visit the nice gardens around the property. It was a very nice experience. Highly recommended, a real "must do".

The area is very picturesque making it perfect for some nice photos. You can also taste and buy many different local rums from the shop.

Nice places to visit, it's the old distillery, the garden is lovely, it smells like old Oak barrel, love it! The boutique is nice, great tasting, nice staff. It's a free visit.

HSE... what can I say... when I visited Martinique I had limited time here. With that said I loved your Rhum so much, I came twice in my 3 day stay here. I visited a total of 4 distilleries on the island and this is the only one I went twice to I liked it so much. They allow you to sample before your purchase, and I made a mistake sampling that much because I had to call in a ride, but it was so good, every single one of them! The bartenders are fun, and know several different languages. That was very much appreciated. The XO was my absolute favorite, clearly because I left with 2 of those bottles. I highly recommend the 12 year single cast as well, I also left with 2 of those bottles. I plan on opening them at special occasions. These bottles are not easy to find in the United States, so during travel I recommend wrapping them up in dippers or something similar for their protection. Going through customs was a long journey but worth it. This rhum is my drink of choice for ti-punch, and I found it to be the best mixing rhum as well. By the way, I don’t recommend mixing this rum because it’s so good by itself already. Out of all of the Distillers I been to in Martinique, this is the one that is an absolute must to drink and visit. Good job HSE, I do plan on visiting again, maybe I’ll stay longer next time! So cheers till next time!

Nice grounds and we were unguided but we were provided with a map. We had three (free) tastings but the bar staff were indifferent and unhelpful with regards to information about the rums.

Great rum! We went this morning as today was our last day in Martinique the latina working there definitely knows her stuff. 100% recommended.

We arrived at 10 minutes before the closed - they did not even sell us a single boytle

Nice destillery with a really nice garden
