The brand : Neisson, the smallest distillery in Martinique, is a picturesque collection of green and pink buildings set amidst the island’s lush tropical vegetation. Since its founding in 1932, three generations of the Neisson family have preserved a rum-making tradition deeply rooted in Martinique’s heritage. Today, under the leadership of Grégory Vernant-Neisson, the distillery continues to produce rums bearing the prestigious Martinique AOC Rhum Agricole designation. Unlike most rums made from molasses, Neisson rums are crafted directly from freshly pressed sugarcane juice, a defining characteristic of authentic Martinican agricole rum. Central to the Neisson philosophy is a profound respect for terroir: the island’s tropical climate and volcanic soils, particularly in the north of Martinique where the distillery is located, impart a distinctive aromatic richness and complexity that have earned Neisson rums worldwide acclaim among enthusiasts and connoisseurs alike.
