The La Mauny distillery was founded in 1749. It takes its name from Count Ferdinand Poulain, the Count of Mauny, who settled in Martinique in the early 18th century. Originally, the La Mauny estate was dedicated to sugar production, but it successfully weathered the sugar crisis by shifting toward the production of agricultural rum around the mid-20th century.

The property was acquired by brothers Théodore and Georges Bellonnie. In the 1970s, Théodore Bellonnie partnered with the Bourdillon families to form the Rhums La Mauny company. The company was renamed Bellonnie Bourdillon et Successeurs (BBS), which also owns the Trois Rivières and Duquesne brands.

Since then, Trois Rivières and Duquesne rums have been produced at the La Mauny distillery. During the guided tour, you’ll discover how La Mauny’s various rums are made, from fresh cane juice to bottling. A tasting of different rums and punch varieties is also offered.

At the end of the tour, you can visit the shop to purchase rum or brand-related products from La Mauny, Trois Rivières, and Duquesne. You’ll also find punch made with La Mauny’s different rums.

To get there, head toward Rivière-Pilote via the N8. Signage will guide you to the distillery from there.
