Labourdonnais
In the heart of the Mauritius archipelago, where the ocean meets the land in an embrace of vibrant colors and exotic scents, stands the distillery Labourdonnais. Here, amidst breathtaking landscapes and breezes carrying the essence of the sea, a rum is born that tells stories of tradition and innovation. In a corner of paradise where sugarcane grows lush, the art of distillation blends with excellence, giving rise to agricultural rums of rare elegance.
Labourdonnais is dedicated to the production of Agricultural Rum, a choice that underscores a production approach respectful of tradition and raw materials. Fresh sugarcane, grown with care and passion, is the soul of these distillates, giving the rums a fruity character and an authentic expression of the Mauritian terroir. The tropical climate and the richness of the soil contribute to creating a final product that enchants the senses with its complexity and finesse.
Among the standout labels, the Labourdonnais XO stands out for its maturity and aromatic depth, a rum that has patiently rested in oak barrels, slowly absorbing the toasted and spiced notes that make it unique. The Sherry Cask Finish, on the other hand, is a sensory experience that brings an explosion of fruity flavors and a velvety smoothness to the glass, the result of aging in barrels previously used for sherry.
Let yourself be carried away by the magic of Labourdonnais rums and discover on Vino45 the authenticity and elegance that only the island of Mauritius can offer. An invitation to explore exotic flavors and a distillation tradition that speaks directly to the heart.

THE COMPANY
The Domaine de Labourdonnais is a historic estate founded in 1774, covering an area of over 540 hectares.
The building of the Domaine is located in Mapou, in the northern part of the island of Mauritius, surrounded by fields of high-quality sugarcane and lush plantations of tropical fruit trees and vegetables. Inside the estate, there is also a distillery dedicated to the production of Rum, which can rely on top-quality raw materials and a warm climate, perfect for the maturation of the distillate.
The Rhumerie des Mascareignes was created in 2006 and uses the purest sugarcane from the estate for production. In 2014, the distillery changed its name to Distillerie de Labourdonnais, while still preserving all the traditional local savoir-faire.
The rebranding also coincided with a rethinking of the product range. Production has focused on creating Agricultural Rum, made only from the first pressing of the purest sugarcane juice.
The success of the distillates is based on the quality of the juice and the yeasts used during the fermentation process. Despite being a young company, the processing methods, from cutting the sugarcane to distillation, are inspired by the oldest customs of the great Rum tradition. The Classic range offers column-distilled white rums, Gold Rum, and Spiced Gold. The Classic Rums are aged in French and American oak barrels. The Fusion range, on the other hand, comes from the maceration of fruits, spices, and premium quality white Rum and represents an innovative interpretation of the famous distillate.
