Copalli Black Cane Rum Organic

Organic Copalli Black Cane Rum

L'explorateur du Gout

Another truly remarkable white rum, sourced from the tropical forests of Belize, a green and preserved environment: Organic Copalli Black Cane Rum is a white rum certified organic from soil to bottle (Eurofeuille label), made from black cane by the Copalli distillery. Founded by Will Maheia and Todd Robinson, Copalli supports local communities by being the largest employer in southern Belize through its Copal Tree sugarcane plantation, distillery, and lodge. The cane varieties are traditional (noble cane and black cane), and all cultivation and manufacturing waste is recycled on the plantation. Copalli, in addition to protecting the environment, subsidizes the education of its employees' children.

Production

Copalli Black Cane is a single estate organic rum, made from pure black cane juice, double distilled in a pot still (Charentais-style still). Only three ingredients, sourced from the rainforest: organic black sugar cane, pure canopy water, and local yeast. Black cane is a traditional ingredient.

Tasting

This white rum is quite surprising: Copalli Black Cane astonishes with its roundness and fruitiness. Melon, watermelon, fresh cane juice, dried fruits, dried apricot, dried peach, Chinese medlar, lychee, and Chinese fruits. Black cane really produces unique flavors. Try it in an unusual ti-punch and in all rum-based cocktails, but also drink it straight, with or without ice. In the kitchen, it will bring an extraordinary aroma.
