RENEGADE Pre Cask New Bacolet

The renegade rum distillery: a modern marvel, precisely designed to highlight the individuality of terroirs, the purity of prolonged fermentation, and a thoughtful, rigorous distillation. Terroir new bacolet: More rugged than its neighbor Old Bacolet, the natural amphitheater of New Bacolet is a south-facing basin with steep slopes, scorched by the sun. Its cane fields reveal striking contrasts, drought-sensitive stalks on the weathered upper slopes and lush growth in the rich, deep colluvial soils below—a classic exploration of terroir. For this rum, we harvested the sucrose-rich variety we call “Lacalome Red” from the “Goat Hill” field, located within the area known as Haute Combe. New Bacolet is landlocked, sheltered by forest to the north, and slopes down toward the south. Situated along a mountainside steeper than most of our estates, its excavation proved the most challenging. Four distinct terroirs have been identified across 21 hectares, where we planted both the Yellow Lady and Lacalome Red varieties.
