Papa Rouyo Blanc Maturé Antipodes Rhum Agricole is an exceptional Rhum Agricole from Guadeloupe, boasting a potent 64 per cent ABV in a 0.7-litre bottle. This premium rhum is produced exclusively from fresh sugarcane juice, extracted from locally grown sugarcane, and retains the characteristic freshness of an authentic rhum agricole. For the Antipodes edition, the distillate is first distilled using traditional methods and then undergoes a short ageing period in oak casks. This so-called ‘Blanc Maturé’ ageing process lends the rum additional complexity and structure without masking the lively, herbal character of the fresh sugar cane. The high cask strength of 64 per cent ensures an intense and unadulterated tasting experience that impressively reflects the signature style of the young Papa Rouyo distillery.

The Papa Rouyo Blanc Maturé Antipodes delights with an exceptional balance of fresh sugar cane, exotic fruits and subtle oak notes. Floral nuances, citrus fruits and delicate spices combine with an elegant woody spice, lending the rum a remarkable depth. Despite its high alcohol content, this bottling is well-balanced and multi-layered. Whether enjoyed neat, with a few drops of water, or as the base for premium tiki and rum cocktails – this rhum agricole is aimed at connoisseurs who appreciate authentic sugarcane flavours and the art of artisanal distillation.
