South America > French Guiana

French Guiana, rich rainforests, vast rivers, and Atlantic shores, has a unique rum story. Sugarcane fields thrive on the eastern edge of the Amazon, fuelled by the hot, humid climate and rich soil near the equator. This legacy dates back to 17th-century sugar mills established during French colonial times. Today, French Guiana, a French department since the 1930s, proudly produces Rhum Agricole, a rum made from fresh cane juice. Distilled using traditional Creole stills and aged in French oak barrels, this rum offers a distinct flavour profile for adventurous rum enthusiasts.
