France

Although mainland France does not produce sugar cane, it is quite possible to distil from imported molasses. This is the case of the Bows distillery located in the southwest (Montauban) or the Maison Ferroni located in Aubagne which distills fresh imported sugar cane. The rums are both traditional and made from cane juice with more or less long fermentations and of course, expertise in aging thanks to its international influence in terms of cooperages.
