Over the last century, five generations of bold and passionate entrepreneurs have crafted spirits in the ancient family distillery, founded by Emile Perrier the famous fruit-liquor maker. The last ones in line are even somewhat rebellious. In the nineteen eighties Jean-Michel Naud, a trained oenologist and passionate explorer of wines and spirits, the son-in-law of Robert Perrier, rediscovered the distillery. Today, with his son, Pierre, they have decided to reignite the flames under the copper pot stills to create distinguished Cognacs, which can be proud of their origins. They are also offering a range of unconventional spirits for the region, aimed at connoisseurs.
The Naud Family’s rum journey continues in Venezuela. Here, they have joined forces with Destilería Sofa, an authentic Hacienda which shares their passion for the Art of Distillation and Ageing.
The sugar cane is cultivated on some of the most fertile lands in Venezuela, not far from Caracas and harvested from November to February. After fermentation, the sugar cane molasses, nick-named “Black Gold”, is distilled on columns. The hot and humid daytimes and the cool and dry nights provide an ideal climate for ageing rum in ex-Bourbon casks.
To perfect its aromatic pallet, NAUD RON VENEZULA 12 Y.O. matures for around 6 months in French oak casks in the humid Naud Family cellars.
