La Favorite Cœur de Canne is rhum agricole at its most elemental. Unaged, bottled at 50% ABV, and certified under Martinique's AOC (Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée) for rhum agricole, this is a spirit that expresses the living sugarcane plant with stunning clarity and intensity.
La Favorite is one of the last family-owned distilleries in Martinique, and the Cœur de Canne ('Heart of the Cane') represents the freshest, most vibrant expression of their estate-grown sugarcane. The Creole column still captures the essential character of the cane juice while maintaining the purity and clarity that defines great blanc agricole.
On the nose, expect fresh-cut sugarcane, lime leaf, green olive, wet grass, white flowers, and mineral clarity. The palate is herbaceous and vibrant with sugarcane purity, grassy freshness, white pepper, and citrus brightness. The finish is clean and invigorating.
This is the quintessential Ti Punch rum. A measure of Cœur de Canne, a disc of lime, a touch of cane syrup — nothing more is needed. The 50% ABV provides the intensity that this serve demands.
