Takamaka rum is produced in the Seychelles, on the island of Mahe in the Trois Freres distillery by the D’Offay family. The estate was founded on an old tropical spice plantation site, La Plaine St Andre, by French settlers over 200 years ago.
The distillery has been operating since 2002, and is the first and only commercial rum producer and exporter in the Seychelles. The sugarcane used is grown in four different regions of Mahe by independent farmers, and is then crushed, distilled, aged and blended on site. Takamaka rum is named after a local bay on the island and is the name of local tree.
Rum Zenn is a blend of Pot & Column distillates, is put through hydrodynamic cavitation and then rested in large stainless steel tanks. To create something slightly different, Rum Zenn is unaged rum that has then been pressed with fines of oak wood from ex-bourbon casks.
