Tasting tonight! 6:30p-8:30p. Taste a new agricole Rhum we just got in. Named after Dutty Boukman, the rebel leader credited with launching the Haitian revolution against French rule, this rhum is made to honor Haiti’s rich tradition of clairin trempè(sort of the Haitian equivalent of moonshine). It’s a rhum agricole, distilled from fresh juice of sugar cane, and infused with various botanicals and barks, many of which are foraged and native to Haiti. Not your everyday spiced rum, this is complex, dry, and elegant. Captain Morgan seekers need not apply. In addition to being great in any rums cocktail, it would be a fun gin alternative. School time: all rhum is rum, but not all rum is rhum. While all r(h)ums are essentially made from sugar cane, R-H-U-M is distilled from fresh pressed sugar cane juice, whereas R-U-M is typically made from by-products like molasses. Bonus feel-good moment: the company donates portions of their profit to Haitian schools. . . . #irvingbottle #irvingbottleevents #rhum #haitianrhum #agricolerhum #freetasting #bushwick
