The Horse Soldiers' White Rum
Horse Soldier was founded by veterans of US Army Special Forces ODA 595 — the "Horse Soldiers" who rode into Afghanistan on horseback in the weeks after 9/11, honored by the America's Response Monument at Ground Zero. After building their name on bourbon at American Freedom Distillery, the team turned to rum — and instead of molasses they went the agricole route: first-press cane juice, triple copper-pot distilled, bottled unaged at 42.5% with nothing added. The result is an extraordinarily pure cane expression: creamy toffee, fresh apple, banana and vanilla bean on the nose, undeniably smooth on the palate, crisp and slightly dry on the finish.

Tasting Notes
Creamy toffee, fresh apple, banana, vanilla bean and a hint of almond on the aroma. Undeniably smooth, soft mouthfeel; crisp, slightly dry finish of banana bread and juicy caramel apples.
How to Enjoy
The daiquiri test: this is exactly the rum for it. Also a natural mojito or rum punch base, where the pure cane character carries the citrus.
