HSE Rhum

HSE Rhum

The distillery Saint-Etienne in Martinique went through many changes and calamities. Found in 1882 on the foundation of an old sugar cane plantation it developed to one of the most imoprtant producers of rhum in Martinique. After the damages caused by the hurricanes David and Allen the old owners didn’t make the reconstruction and finally had to sell the facilities in 1984. In 1988 the distillery was closed down.

In 1994 the owners of the Le Simon distillery bought the old equipment. After reconstruction and restauration since then the famous HSE Rhum lives again. Within only a few years it became number 3 now in Martinique.
