Rum Nation Ilha Da Madeira Natural Agricole

Rum Nation Ilha Da Madeira Natural Agricole. This is also our first rum from Madeira, made at the Engenho do Norte distillery with traditional artisanal methods, using old steam-operated machinery dating back to the 19th century. It is distilled in three massive French “Barbert” stills with a 7.5 meter-high copper column from fermented pure sugarcane juice, in a fully “agricole” style. No oak casks have been used for its maturation, which only consists of three months of rest in stainless steel tanks to smoothen the edges and retain its clean character. Its sweet, fresh and minty notes are enriched by a hint of salinity at the palate, perhaps due the influence of the proximity to the sea.
