The Flor de Cana Extra Dry White Rum is a 4-year-old spirit with a 40% alcohol volume, and a bottle size of 1000ml. Produced in Nicaragua by the renowned Flor de Cana distillery, this rum is aged for four years to develop its intensity and then delicately filtered to maintain its clarity. This unique filtration process ensures that the rum retains its rich aromas acquired during the aging period while allowing it to blend seamlessly with other ingredients in cocktails without altering their color.
On the nose, this rum presents a very light and ethereal scent, accompanied by a subtle smoky veil that evokes toasted charcoal and dry vegetal notes. As the aroma develops, you encounter hints of hot, melted, and cooked sugar, followed by the comforting scent of roasted nuts, reminiscent of dry, roasted peanuts that gradually transform into creamy peanut butter. With aeration, the rum reveals slightly floral alcohol aromas, more toasted wood, and a touch of grey pepper.
On the palate, Flor de Cana Extra Dry White Rum is exceptionally light, with the alcohol evaporating quickly to leave behind a chilli and mineral undertone of charcoal that tantalizes the tongue. The ethereal quality of the alcohol reappears with a faint hint of vanilla, presumably imparted by its four years in the cask. Despite being a rum rich in sugar, it does not come across as overly sweet but maintains a subtle sweetness throughout. The cane flavor is notably subdued, making this rum an excellent ingredient for cocktails.
Primarily intended for mixing, this rum's light profile makes it a perfect choice for enhancing mojitos and other cocktail recipes. Its traditional Spanish "ron" style contributes to its versatility in a wide range of mixed drinks.
