Charanda Uruapan Single Blended Rum

1 L
Item # 38604

It may seem improbable at first but as they say, you often meet new friends in unexpected places. Mexico is known as the land of Mezcal and Tequila but there are pockets of the country across its vastly diverse micro-climates where the conditions for top quality sugarcane are ideal. And here you will find small artisanal producers that evoke the best of the mezcal world, making exciting, complex, natural rums known as Charanda. Notes here are similar to those of the great Clairins of Haiti or the regal agricoles of the French Caribbean with a mix of savory and hints of sweet including notes of Lime Basil, green peppercorns, white tea, preserved lemon and mulberries.

Staff Pick Notes

This bottle is most definitely one of the best values here at Astor. It comes in a liter sized bottle and is simply awesome. How many bottles of spirits can you find here that you can be happy sipping on neat that cost under $40 per liter? You’re looking at THE one. Charanda is a D.O. protected product that comes from the village of Uruapan in the state of Michoacan. It was first distilled in 1907 by Cleofas Murgia Pacheco. His descendant, Miriam Pacheco is now the master distiller of the rum. It is distilled from half cane juice and half molasses. Fermentation comes from native yeasts. The cane is grown at altitudes of over 4000 feet. It is so smooth in texture and is full of flavors of tropical fruits such as mango and bananas. It has an earthy minerality that speaks of the red volcanic soil of the canefields.
