Rum Nation Guadeloupe White
Pure sugarcane character
Most rum is made from molasses. Rhum agricole is made from fresh sugarcane juice, which gives it a different personality: vegetal, fresh and aromatic, with the taste of the cane itself. Rum Nation Guadeloupe White shows this style at its most direct. It is not aged in oak, so what you taste is the cane.
Why 50% ABV?
Guadeloupe's white rums are traditionally bottled at around 50%, the strength most often chosen for Ti' Punch. At this strength the grassy, citrus and zesty notes stay bold and clear, and the rum holds its own in cocktails. If you usually drink 37.5% or 40% white rum, expect a more vivid and powerful spirit.

How to enjoy it
Ti' Punch: The classic. Pour 50ml of Rum Nation Guadeloupe White into a short glass, add a small spoon of cane syrup and a thick slice of lime, and stir gently. Serve with or without ice.
Daiquiri: Shake with fresh lime juice and sugar syrup for a grassier, more vibrant Daiquiri.
Ti' Punch twist: Add a few slices of fresh fruit or a dash of passion fruit for a lighter punch.
Neat: Sip it slowly in a small glass if you enjoy bold, vegetal spirits.
