Santiago de Cuba Carta Blanca is a light molasses rum that is true to the tradition of Cuban rum. This exceptional spirit is produced in the Santiago de Cuba region and proudly carries the D.O.P. CUBA designation, signifying its adherence to the protected denomination of origin.

Distilled from Cuban sugar cane molasses using a refined column distillation process, this rum undergoes a minimum of 3 years of aging in white oak barrels. This maturation process imparts delightful notes of oak and almond, all enveloped in a subtle vanilla scent. A charcoal filtration process ensures the rum's light and clear color, making it visually appealing as well.

Additional accolades for this rum include a gold medal at the International Wine and Spirits Competition in 2018. The unique climate and soil of the Santiago de Cuba region provide optimal conditions for growing the sugar cane that forms the molasses base of this elegant rum. The aging process is meticulously monitored in the city’s warehouses, with careful barrel rotation to ensure even maturation.
