Review: Cruzan Raspberry Rum

by Jeff Ellingson

cruzan raspberry - CopyCruzan Raspberry rum is one of the thirteen flavors Cruzan creates in St. Croix with tropical rainwater and high quality molasses using a five column distillation process.  They then remove the fusel oils, a by-product of alcohol production commonly blamed for everything from hangovers to the burn you feel swallowing most other flavored rums, before natural raspberry flavor is added.The aroma is a mix of raspberry and rum.  The flavor is raspberry jam building to a tart peak before fading with rum flavor and a gentle mouth warming.  Cruzan Raspberry rum is smooth enough to drink on the rocks and mixes well with others.  Try a Cruzan Cheesecake:  1.5 Oz Cruzan Raspberry, 1.5 Oz Cruzan Vanilla, 3 Oz Cranberry Juice.
