Organic Copalli White Rum

Organic Copalli White Rum

L'explorateur du Gout

Organic Copalli White Rum is an exceptional white rum, certified organic from soil to bottle (Eurofeuille label), sourced from the tropical forests of Belize, a green and preserved environment. The Copalli Distillery, founded by Will Maheia and Todd Robinson, 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 White Rum is a single estate rum made from pure cane juice (as opposed to the more common molasses rums) distilled in two types of stills: pot still (Charentais-style still) and column still. Only three ingredients, sourced from the rainforest: organic sugarcane, pure canopy water, and local yeast. This rum thrives on its exceptional and protected environment.

Tasting

Extraordinary purity, clarity, and intense aroma, Copalli White Rum is an extraordinary white rum, with notes of sugarcane, vanilla, and fresh herbs. On the palate, tropical fruits (guava, soursop, lime) and lemon zest. Delicious and long on the palate. Try it in a ti-punch and in all rum-based cocktails, but also drunk on its own, with or without ice.
