Estate offering a tour of the cane fields on foot and/or on board a small train, Creole Food products on site.

The distillery has been producing rum from father to son since 1928. It is one of the last Caribbean distilleries still operating thanks to a paddle wheel dating back to the 1930s, which is actuated by the current of the river, captured through a canal built by hand… The guided tour, on board a tourist train, for 35 minutes, allows you to understand the different stages of the manufacturing process of agricultural rum. You drive in the middle of the cane fields and in the surrounding countryside to a beautiful viewpoint of Grand Cul-de-Sac Marin. You can also discover the park of the former house on foot (it's about 30-minute visit). The estate also produces products of the Créole Food brand: peppers, a range of sauces, mustards, flavoured cane vinegar, dessert spices, pasta for cod fish cake… Products found in Séverin, the restaurant, and in the grocery stores and supermarkets in Guadeloupe.

Creole Garden: You can walk through a beautiful Creole garden lovingly created by May Marsolle, wife of the owner of the Joseph Marsolle estate. You will see many species of exotic plants and flowers.

Domaine parmi les plus anciens de la Guadeloupe dans la production du rhum, Séverin a perdu de son aura auprès des puristes, mais une visite de son domaine reste un vrai régal pour les yeux et les papilles. Champs de canne, domaine de maitre, distillerie, dégustation, toutes les étapes avec quelques anecdotes historsiques sont bien là pour nous faire voyager.

Piège à touristes, je confirme. La visite en petit train et la soi disant dégustation de quelques gouttes de rhum ne justifient pas le prix des billets. Nous avons acheté une bouteille de rhum à la boutique et avons vu la même par la suite en supermarché beaucoup moins chère!

Le domaine est agréable, mais le tour en train ne m'a pas beaucoup plu (concept de train à touristes qui n'est pas à mon goût...) : c'est sûrement mieux à faire seul, à pied! On apprend des choses sur le rhum et on peut déguster.

The idea is nice, but very tourist trap, the pools are seen from afar passing quickly at train, half tower near pineapple fields does not offer anything, tasting Ben it is not great
