Arawaks

The Arawaks distillery was founded by Danois Vaval in 1947 and is today run by his son, Fritz. It is located in Cavaillon and possesses 20 hectares of Madame Meuze sugarcane. It operates a continuous creole column still fitted with ten plates and a handmade condenser made from a gasoline can. The spirit is then bottled at its still strength of 50-55% ABV.

While the majority of its output is sold in the local market, it is also one of the five producers in The Spirit of Haiti portfolio where it is represented by the Clairin Vaval brand.
