Clairin, meaning ‘Clear’ in Creole, is a rustic Haitian sugarcane spirit made from fresh cane juice and is a subcategory of white rum.
Clairin Communal harmoniously blends four rums made by Clairin producers from small communities in different corners of Haiti.
Each utilise traditional production methods; natural sugarcane varieties, wild fermentation and a discontinuous distillation.
Clairin Communal highlights elements from each of the producers and lets their fruity and funkiness shine.
Perfect for twisting classic rum cocktails like the Pina Colada.
Nose: Fresh sugar cane juice blended with fruit salad. Pungent cane notes mix with apples, oranges, and unripe bananas. Leafy herbal hints hide underneath, along with gentle new-car leather and a touch of icing sugar sweetness.
Palate: Boiled sweets and candied fruit lead on the palate, followed by treacle tart, tarte tatin and creamy caramel sauce. Crunchier caramel and cinder toffee notes build, leading to a background of dark chocolate, liquorice and warm engines.
Finish: Creamy to start, with leafy tarragon, aniseed and black liquorice following.
