Rhum Vieux Agricole Flora Antillarum Montebello 19 Y.O 2002 was composed from a blend of an agricultural and a traditional rhum. Aged in 350 litre ex-bourbon and ex-Cognac casks on 7 February 2002, it was distilled at Montebello. Entirely aged at the distillery, it was bottled at natural strength.
This rhum vieux Montebello 19 Y.O 2002 is part of the Flora Antillarum range, dedicated to three essential references from Guadeloupe: Bologne, Karukera and Montebello. The inspiration comes from one of the first books documenting the flora of the Antilles: published in 1808 and written by François Richard de Tussac, Senator of Guadeloupe, it bears the very long and evocative title Flora Antillarum: seu, Historia generalis botanica, ruralis, oeconomica vegetabilium in Antilles indigenorum, et exoticorum indigenis cultura adscriptorum; secondum systema sexuale Linnaei, et methodum naturalem Jussiaei in loco natali elaborata, iconibus accuratissime delineatis et coloratis illustrata. When Luca Gargano came into possession of it, he thought of using the splendid illustrations contained therein for the labels of these agricultural rums, created with the collaboration of Sylvain Guzzo.
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.
