Rhum Transat Blanc, like its XO and Millésime 2000 counterparts, was conceived by Benoît Charbonnaud, a winemaker with a passion for sailing and a love of rum. These three characteristics have come together to create Rhums Transat.
This is a pure cane juice rum from a distillery in the north-east of Martinique...
Rhum Transat Blanc traveled 5 weeks in the holds of a ship from Martinique to Metropolitan France. It was then bottled in Burgundy.
Mulot Petitjean's liquid cane sugar with limes and gingerbread powder is the perfect ingredient for a unique ti punch.
In Burgundy, Maison Mulot et Petitjean is one of the oldest gingerbread manufacturers.
We recommend using a small amount of this sugar to enhance white Transat rum.
Laurent's tasting notes
Its color is translucent.
On the nose, it's primarily cane juice that stands out. Then comes a blend of banana, pear and flower. The alcohol remains fairly discreet and the whole, though dry, is not without a gourmand note and a slight freshness.
On the palate, too, the alcohol is well balanced. The attack is soft for a very brief moment, then the palate becomes dry, with the cane reigning supreme.
The finish is rather long and dry, dominated by cane and a hint of lime.
