Frequently asked questions
We group rum into six style families: white rum, aged rum, Rhum Agricole, sweetened rum, unsweetened rum and rarities.
Beginners often start with smooth, lightly sweetened or aged rum. If you prefer it pure, try unsweetened rum. Still unsure? The rum finder leads you to your style.
Sweetened rum carries added sugar for a rounder, sweeter first sip; unsweetened rum shows the pure character of raw material and cask.
Rhum Agricole is distilled from fresh sugarcane juice instead of molasses. The result is grassy, mineral and expressive.
