In the past, ‘mesccia’ was a blend of Caribbean rum brought to Monaco by Genoese sailors and European liqueurs such as Vermouth and Marsala. Today, the Principality of Monaco and Velier are reviving this 17th-century tradition with a modern twist, selecting high-quality rums and ageing them in casks that previously contained Vermouth.
Mesccia Vieux was born out of the Prince’s desire to recreate a product linked to Monegasque history: a project he was deeply committed to, developed in collaboration with Luca Gargano, who is regarded worldwide as one of the leading experts on rum.
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.
