Oak-Rested, Then Filtered Clear
Cristal takes the same fresh-cane-juice spirit as the rest of the Vizcaya range, rests it in select oak barrels — the brand's copy notes mostly new oak with portions of used bourbon barrels — and then filters it back to a clear spirit. The result is a white rum with actual character: vanilla, sherry, walnuts and mocha on a satin-smooth frame. It's built to be sipped neat, which is not something every white rum can claim. Compare with the dark side of the family in the rum collection, see other unaged and filtered rums in white rum, or browse all of Vizcaya.
Tasting Notes
Vanilla, sherry, walnuts and mocha — satin-smooth with a long, clean finish. A white rum that sips like an aged one.
How to Enjoy
Sip neat or over one cube to taste what the oak rest left behind. In cocktails, it's a premium white — a daiquiri or mojito with depth.
