Charanda Single Estate Blended Añejo Rum

• Single estate sugarcane spirit produced by the historic Pacheco family in Uruapan, Michoacán
• D.O., single estate-grown sugarcane cultivated over 4,000 feet above sea level and pressed using a water-powered mill
• Blend of 50% fresh pressed sugarcane and 50% molasses
• Fresh cane sees open-air fermentation for 11 days; molasses close-fermented for 48 hours
• Cane juice distilled twice in 1,000-liter, wood-fired, copper pot stills
• Molasses distilled using a short, French-style column still
• Aged for 22 months in ex-bourbon barrels
• Uruapan Charanda’s signature bright, tropical fruit flavors are enveloped in a warming, confectionary embrace of clove and toasted coconut with a whisp of smoke and banana esters on the finish
• 46% ABV

Aged for 22 months in ex-bourbon barrels, this rum is a lovely balance between the terroir-specific character of the Pacheco’s estate-grown sugarcane and a dry, confectionary whiskey.
