Rougaroux Sugarshine Rum

Deep in the heart of the Southern Louisiana Cajun country lurks a mysterious creature called the Rougaroux®, (Roo ga roo). It lingers in the sugarcane fields, emerging only during the full moon to exact justice on the wicked, its curse lasting 101 days. Our American Style 101 proof rum delivers monstrous power, with a bold molasses flavor and a lingering sweetness unique to sugarcane grown in Louisiana. We start with sugar grown and milled from a family owned farm just down the road from our distillery located in Thibodaux, Louisiana. Handcrafted each step of the way – from farm to bottle and cane to cocktail. Our clear rum is not your grandmother's clear rum! We purposely decided to deviate from conventional wisdom and produce a "Rum Moonshine" - hot, bold, massive, with enough punch to sear right through you. And that's what Sugarshine does. However, a funny thing happened on the way to the bar: we discovered that the thick molasses and brown sugar character of Sugarshine is absolutely fantastic in cocktails. If you want your rum and coke to taste like coke, buy something else. If you want it to taste like rum, you've found your nirvana.
