Cotton & Reed White Rum

Gently grassy. Aromas of mango, banana, and vanilla. Use for light, fruity, summery cocktails. We ferment raw cane syrup and blackstrap molasses with a rhum agricole yeast strain and a chenin blanc yeast strain to develop a rich tropical fruit character. Two distillations on our hybrid pot // column still take our spirit up to approximately 180 proof. This gives our White Rum a light enough body to perform in a mojito, but leaves enough fruity character to create a fruity daiquiri. Once it comes off the still, we add filtered water, run it through a charcoal filter, then bottle it by hand at our distillery in Northeast DC.
