Review: Calico Jack Cherry Rum
Calico Jack Cherry Rum is one of nine rum flavors Beam Suntory creates under the Calico Jack Label. If you are unfamiliar with the Calico Rum brand, it was originally created by White Rock Distillers, who also built the Pinnacle line of vodka. They are currently the fifth best selling brand of flavored rum. They start with rum distilled at the Cruzan distillery in St. Croix. Natural flavor is added in Frankfort Kentucky where it is bottled at 42 proof.The aroma is Maraschino cherry. The flavor enters as sweet cherry building to a rum enhanced cherry peak. It fades with a little more rum flavor and a mild mouth warming before a natural lightly tart cherry finish with a gentle burn as it slides down my throat. Calico continues to create impressive flavored rums at a budget price.
