Vinos a la venta: Domaine de Courcelles

Domaine de Courcelles was founded in the early 1930s in Grande-Terre, Guadeloupe, and closed in 1964. The owner, Amédée Huygues Despointes, moved the stills to Saint-Marthe, where they continued to be used before it was closed for good in 1972, the year of the last distillation. The distillery produced molasses-based rum. The last casks were for a long time forgotten until being bought by an independent bottler, who took them to Marie-Galante and transferred the contents into oak barrels.
