Clement Rum
Compare 18 prices from S$42
Clément is one of the defining names in Martinique rhum agricole, with roots at Habitation Clément in Le François. The estate's modern story began when Homère Clément acquired Domaine de l'Acajou in 1887, later establishing a reputation for rum made from fresh sugarcane juice rather than molasses.
Today Rhum Clément is owned by the Hayot family's GBH group, while Habitation Clément itself functions as a heritage site, ageing location and visitor experience. The brand sits within Martinique's AOC rhum agricole tradition, whose rules help preserve the island's cane-based production style and sense of terroir.
The range includes white agricole rhums, aged expressions such as VSOP and XO, vintage releases and more specialised bottlings. Younger Clément rhums tend to show grassy cane, citrus, pepper and floral freshness, while aged expressions bring vanilla, dried fruit, spice, cocoa, toasted oak and a more rounded, Cognac-like polish.
Clément is an excellent reference point for anyone exploring French Caribbean rum. It has enough history and regional identity for serious rum drinkers, while its range also offers accessible entry points into the brighter, drier and more aromatic world of rhum agricole.
