Story: The 10 Cane Rum was created by Jean Pineau, the master distiller behind the famous Henessy Cognacs. In creating this rum he uses the same strict approach that he uses when making Cognac, using only the highest quality materials he can get his hands on. This led Jean to choose sugarcane juice, rather than the more traditional molasses. He only uses the juice of the first press, which he believes makes for a better quality rum, despite the fact that it reduces his yields up to 25%. The rum is small-batch distilled in copper pot stills that were brought to the Caribbean from the Cognac region, before being aged for 10 months in French Oak casks. Try it as an interesting alternative to Dark Rum in a Hurricane or Dark ‘n’ Stormy.

Tasting Notes: Floral notes stand out on the bouquet, with a touch of olive oil character. The palate shows the flavours of the sugarcane strongly, backed up by hints of citrus, vanilla and spice. The rum finishes with a long blast of fresh lemon.
