THE CHAMAREL RUM DISTILLERY

Rhumerie de Chamarel is a place where Rum Meets Paradise

Nestled amidst lush tropical greenery and rolling hills, the Rhumerie de Chamarel is a hidden gem on the island of Mauritius. As you approach, the scent of sugarcane and the promise of exquisite rum hang in the air. The setting alone is enough to transport you to a state of relaxation and wonder.

The distillery tour is relatively short experience. Guides lead you through the rum-making process, from the freshly harvested sugarcane to the copper stills where magic happens. You'll learn about fermentation, distillation, and aging—the alchemical steps that turn humble juice into liquid gold. The pleasure is witnessing the giant oak barrels where the rum matures, each one holding secrets and stories.

After the tour, you're invited to a tasting session. Picture this: a rustic wooden table adorned with crystal-clear glasses, each containing a different expression of Rhumerie de Chamarel's craft. From light and floral to rich and robust, their range covers the spectrum. Sip, savor, and let the flavors dance on your palate. The staff's passion for their product is contagious—they'll share anecdotes and flavor profiles, making the experience even more memorable.

Now, here's the insider tip: While the distillery tour and tasting are wonderful, the real treasure lies in the boutique. Yes, you can purchase their exceptional rums right there. But wait, there's more! Remember how you mentioned buying it cheaper elsewhere? Well, brace yourself: You can indeed find Rhumerie de Chamarel's bottles at duty-free shops or local markets for a better price. So, if you're a savvy traveler, enjoy the tasting, soak in the views, and then discreetly make your shopping list for later. ????

Le lieu est très jolie et très instagramable. Pour la partie culturelle, sans plus. Heureusement que nous avions fait des visites de sucreries et rhumeries à la Réunion. La dégustation reste néanmoins généreuse et appréciable. Idem, c'est pour goûter et non apprendre à déguster.

Per gli amanti del rum un giro in questa distilleria é d'obbligo, nel biglietto sono compresi gli assaggi a tutte le varietà di rum presenti e non solo. Inoltre giardino molto bello e ben curato

Superbe lieu, visite guidée intéressante et dégustation très agréable !
Ne goûtez pas à tout si vous reprenez le volant, vous risqueriez de voir la route en double.
Les prix des produits sont cependant meilleurs dans les magasins de l'île.

Rhumerie dans un cadre magnifique avec la végétation luxuriante et le bâtiment qui s'intègre parfaitement dans le paysage !
Bonnes explications sur les procédés de fabrication du rhum et excellente dégustation. La rhumerie était ouverte malgré les travaux sur la route (09/2024)
