Cane rum is a vibrant spirit distilled directly from fresh sugarcane juice, giving it a distinctively grassy, often floral, and sometimes subtly sweet flavor profile, unlike molasses-based rums which tend to be richer and darker. Its history is deeply rooted in the Caribbean, particularly in the French Antilles (like Martinique and Guadeloupe) where it's known as "rhum agricole," a protected designation of origin. This style of rum emerged from a desire to utilize sugarcane juice directly rather than the byproduct of sugar production. One should consider trying cane rum for its authentic and unadulterated expression of the sugarcane plant, offering a unique and often more aromatic tasting experience that's excellent for sipping neat or in classic cocktails like a Ti' Punch.
