Located in the north of Martinique, on the slopes of Montagne Pelée, Habitation Bellevue benefits from a humid tropical climate and particularly fertile volcanic lands suitable for growing exceptional sugar cane. In 1914, Gustave Crassous de Médeuil bought Rhumerie J.M from the family of Jean-Marie Martin. Since that date, the Crassous de Médeuil heirs have conscientiously overseen the production of Rhum J.M. Cultivated and selected with care, the sugar canes are crushed in mills less than an hour after cutting, this specificity guarantees the obtaining of a particularly fresh cane juice rich in aromas. J.M is one of the rare distilleries in Martinique to use spring water for the production of its Rums. Coming from Montagne Pelée, this pure water, rich in minerals, contributes to the quality of J.M. Rums. Historically, the distillation of agricultural Rums has been carried out in two traditional copper columns, of the Creole type. The barrels are carefully selected and previously burned before use. Each year, the cellar master meticulously tops up the barrels with rums of the same age in order to preserve the typicity specific to each vintage
