A tribute to nature’s upper layer, where sugarcane meets the northern Martinique jungle. Canopée is a rhum agricole expression from the historic Fonds-Préville distillery at the foot of Mont Pelée, made from freshly pressed sugarcane juice and refined by J.M’s uncompromising craft.
Style & Origin
Type: Rhum Agricole AOC Martinique
Distillery: Rhum J.M, Macouba, Martinique
ABV: 46%
Maturation: Select blend centered around 6 years in oak (tropical ageing)
Canopée unites the distillery’s pure cane character with the cool, lush terroir of northern Martinique. The result is a rounded, deeply aromatic rum with both power and poise.
Aroma & Taste
Nose: Expressive notes of lightly roasted cocoa beans, followed by dates, dried figs, and prunes. Subtle, refined vanilla ties it all together.
Palate: Soft, full entry where hints of smoked wood and gentle spices unfold—think freshly grated cinnamon and a whisper of nutmeg. Beneath lie dark chocolate, toffee, and roasted nuts.
Finish: Long, harmonious finish with dried fruit, fine oak, and a pleasant warmth.
Serving & Pairing
Enjoy neat at 16–18 °C in a tulip glass to capture the delicate top notes. Canopée pairs beautifully with dark chocolate (70–85%), aged hard cheeses, or as an after-dinner rum in place of dessert wine. A few drops of water can reveal extra spice and fruit.
Craft & Responsibility
Rhum J.M works to modern sustainability standards in field and distillery, with programs that protect the Fonds-Préville ecosystem. Canopée is bottled in a decanter and presented in a fiber-based box—design choices that reflect the house’s focus on nature and circular materials.
