Paranubes Rum Cana Morada

Rum agricole, also known as aguardiente from the cloud forests of Oaxaca, Mexico. Paranubes rum is made entirely from sugarcane juice, with no mollases or other additives. They harvest the pesticide-free sugarcane daily, and prepare the juice for fermentation within a maximum of 48 hours from harvest, resulting in an extremely "fresh" spirit. For the fermentation, they do not add water, but they do add two handfuls of boiled mesquite bark to kickstart the process, and if the bark is unavailable, they use the skins of two pineapples. Bottled at 54% abv, this rum is incredibly flavourful, and can be used in a wide variety of cocktails, paired with citrus or other fruit juices.
This single cane varietal is seasonal and limited, as they can only be produced when the master distiller Jose Luis has a fully empty fermentation tank. The Cana Morada features a slight maritime salinity, there was an explosion of spice notes, particularly sweet cinnamon reminiscent of Big Red Gum, or Atomic Fireball Candy
