Rum: Cruzan Black Strap

A traditional, heavier rum made from the blackstrap molasses of sugar cane. In sugar refining, molasses is separated from the sugar crystals after each of three boiling or extraction processes that sugar cane goes through. The third and final separation is called blackstrap.

Size: 750mL

Proof: 80 (40% ABV)

Origin: US Virgin Islands

Distillery: Cruzan Rum Distillery

Detailed Description

After the sugar makers have extracted everything they can from the cane juice, blackstrap molasses remains. It's this molasses that lends its name to Cruzan Rum's most interesting product: a dark rum with such a unique flavor profile, it cannot be substituted for. Made on the island of St. Croix, this column-distilled rum is aged one to two years in ex-Bourbon barrels and flavored with molasses.

Cruzan Black Strap Rum Tasting Notes

Nose: The tasting room with aromas of pancake syrup, molasses, vanilla, and hints of fennel. On nosing, the spirit makes its youth known with a hefty dose of astringency that runs counter to the bakery invitation given moments earlier.

Palate: The rum enters with some astringency and spice, but is immediately attenuated by the sweet molasses. Again, there is ample pancake syrup, along with vanilla and caramel. Subsequent sips yield a bit of coffee, then citrus and spice, namely lemon zest and cardamom.

Finish: Despite being full of robust flavors, the bitter finish is thin and short.
