A family and independent operation, founded in 1895...
This year, it has launched a daring enterprise: to popularize agricultural rums, by delivering a "fun" and modern version of them accessible to all in supermarkets. The Papillon brand is the result of this innovative experiment.
We discover here the second reference: after the white rum, here is the amber rum! Papillon Freespirit, is its name, which refers to the nickname given to the island of Guadeloupe.
The nose evokes scents of citrus fruits, in particular orange, accompanied by spices such as cinnamon or star anise. In the palate, we find these same flavors, completed by a greedy vanilla.
A very good amber rum, as only Longueteau has the secret, presented in a bottle with a pure, colorful and original design!
