Rum Nation Jamaica White Pot Still is the first white rum to be offered by the Italian brand specializing in importing and packaging rums from the Caribbean.
Produced in the village of Sainte-Catherine (south-east Jamaica), more precisely at the Worthy Park distillery, this white rum undoubtedly has an astonishing personality. This is what motivated Fabio Rossi, founder of Rum Nation, to choose it.
Its aromatic bouquet makes it an ideal ingredient for cocktails such as the Boston Cooler, Dark & Stormy and Jamaican Mule.
Laurent's tasting notes
It is perfectly translucent.
On the nose, we're on... a UFO! You have to be prepared for it. The first thing that strikes you is its intensity and personality; a beautiful melting pot of floral notes, spices, handouts from my childhood and truffles in the background. I even caught a few whiffs of cane juice, which is the last straw for a molasses rum.
On the palate, the attack is relatively supple for its 57°, but it quickly becomes drier and you'll feel its warmth wash over you as you swallow it.
Some of the aromas you experienced on the nose are present, as well as olive, something vegetal, and that handout that turns into a tube of glue (still from my childhood).
The palate is marked for a long time. The tube of glue becomes super-gluey and leaves the mouth feeling like an unripe banana.
"The day I tasted this rum, it was a real shock. I didn't think a molasses white could have such character."
Phil Gringo
Good balance between aromatic power, sweetness, glue flavors and a light fruity taste reminiscent of banana. Reminds me of Rum Fire, but finer and more pleasant to taste neat. Very good funky rum.

I particularly like the vegetal taste of rums, so this bottle is very special on the palate, but very pleasant!
