Around 1660, Nicolas Fouquet, superintendent of the finances of Louis XIV, dreamed of founding a viceroyalty in the Caribbean, with the complicity of Lieutenant Isaac Feuquieres. So he won the largest concession ever awarded in the Caribbean: about 2000 hectares between Diamante and St. Luce. He built a real castle that was never inhabited and after the fall of the king (and his emissaries), most of the residential buildings were destroyed.


From all this remained a huge sugar plantation that over the years passed into the hands of several properties. In 1785, Etienne Issaie Marraud Desgrottes, a powerful landowner, bought the plantations. The numerous sugar factories gradually passed to the production of malt for agricultural rums.
The name Trois Rivieres (Three Banks) derives from the fact that the distillery is located on the edge of three rivers that flow into: Bois d'Inde, Oman and St. Pierre. All Trois Rivières rums are filtered at room temperature and are bottled without adding caramel. Trois Rivieres 1997

Distillates have different alcoholpercentages. So, we have defined a parameter allowing you to better understand and compare different prices. This parameter is calculated by dividing the bottle price by the alcohol content. The alcohol content (or strength) is the amount of pure alcohol (ethanol) contained in the distillate.
This parameter indicates the price of a single 4cl dosage of distillate. It is calculated by dividing the price of the bottle by its quantity (expressed in cl), then multiplying by the centilitres of the recommended single dose, as average in cocktail recipes.
