"First Propulsion Maritime Alcohol License in Middle Tennessee"
Martinique: Middle Tennessee’s Premier Wine & Cigar Vessel
Elevated Leisure on the Water
HRP DBA Martinique introduces a new era of luxury transportainment to Middle Tennessee. As the region’s first-of-its-kind Wine & Cigar passenger vessel, Martinique offers a curated escape for those who appreciate the finer things in life.
Situated at Drakes Creek Marina on Old Hickory Lake, we provide an unparalleled experience that blends the scenic beauty of the Cumberland River system with world-class hospitality.
The Vessel & Experience
Our custom-built, 123-passenger flagship is designed with two distinct tiers of luxury to cater to every preference:
- The First Tier: A sophisticated, smoke-free lounge featuring an elegant bar, plush seating, and an outdoor deck. Every guest is welcomed with a complimentary drink and chef-crafted tapas.
- The Second Tier: An opulent cigar lounge for the true aficionado. This deck features a premium humidor, personal lockers, and a dedicated bar, all leading to an expansive open-air viewing area.
Each voyage features a curated selection of premium wines, high-end spirits, local craft beers, and gourmet catered cuisine designed to pair perfectly with your choice of smoke or pour.
