This cocktail is endlessly adaptable and meets the moment perfectly every time.  Smoked Old Fashioned 2 oz Rhum J.M Terroir Volcanique .25oz Smoked Pineapple Syrup 2-4 Dashes Rhum J.M Cacao Bitters To make the smoked pineapple syrup: cut the skin off the pineapple and smoke in a barbecue until outside is slightly burnt (around 30 minutes).

Production Notes

Rhum J.M sits at the base of Mount Pelee, an active volcano on the north side of the island of Martinique. Rhum J.M is made using fresh pressed sugarcane juice, as is typical in Martinique and required to use the AOC Rhum Agricole designation. Their sugarcane grows around the distillery, benefitting from volcanic soil, and goes from harvesting to fermenation in 1 hour. Rhum J.M Terroir Volcanique is a blend of 3 year old rhums that have been aged in barrels with two different char levels ("Intense" and "Extreme") to bring out the terroir of the volcano on which Rhum J.M sits.
