    How does this rum taste?

    The Carta Blanca Rum, hailing from the renowned Santiago de Cuba distillery, presents itself as a light and approachable white rum distilled from molasses. Aged for three years, it offers a complex aroma of pecan, ester, and light tropical fruits, with a hint of sourness. The taste is dominated by pleasing roasted nut and caramel flavors, complemented by fresh tropical fruit and grape notes. While some users find its lightness refreshing and ideal for mixing, others seek a fuller body for sipping. The moderate 38% ABV ensures smoothness, making it a versatile rum suitable for cocktails like a classic Cuba Libre, though it might not satisfy those craving intensity in a neat pour.

    White Rum Blind Tasting by Artur: hardly any taste, lots of neutral alcohol.

    Unfortunately little expression and strength

    for me, it‘s not really for sipping, but it‘s a very good choice for a cuba libre😎.

    A light nose. White fruits and currants with some soft wood and coffee. The palate has a hit of white grape juice with subtle wood and roasted peanuts. The finish is short with an interesting, almost Old Tom Gin note of juniper. Overall, very light, some interesting notes. Not something I would reach for often. Could do with more weight.
