Alambique Serrano "Cartier 30" Rum

Alambique Serrano Cartier 30 is not for the faint of heart — and it doesn't pretend to be. An unaged rum produced in Santa Maria Tlalixtac, Oaxaca, the Cartier 30 name refers to an obsolete alcohol measurement scale where "30 Cartier" translates to 70% ABV — the traditional strength locals have historically mixed with fresh cane juice and shot straight. The Krassel family plants, harvests, and distills 100% organic Java sugarcane from altitudes as high as 4,000 feet above sea level, fermenting naturally and distilling in a custom-built still originally designed by German immigrant Max Krassel in the 1930s — a still that produces no heads or tails whatsoever. The result is a spirit of extraordinary purity and wild character. The nose opens with pungent fresh sugarcane, grass, olive brine, mineral water, and earthy funk, while the palate delivers Mexican spice, pepper, vegetal cane, citrus, and banana — finishing long and intense with green herbs, mineral notes, and subtle smokiness. For fans of Clairin, Neisson L'Esprit, or high-proof agricole — this is your next obsession. Buy Alambique Serrano Cartier 30 Rum online with fast shipping right to your door.
