Catalina Rum Company White Rum
Catalina Rum Company White Rum — Amid the Sunny Skies is a 750mL Caribbean rum made with molasses and bottled for Bluewater Grill by R6 Distillery in El Segundo, California — the daytime half of a pair created by Bluewater co-owners Jimmy Ulcickas and Richard Staunton to honor Catalina Island's Prohibition-era rum-running history, its label showing Avalon Harbor under sunny skies. It is available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor, San Diego, CA.
If the Dark Rum is the midnight run, the White Rum is the morning after: the same molasses-based Caribbean rum program, kept light, crisp and clean for mixing. Bluewater pours the two together in its Captain's Mai Tai — light and dark Catalina rum with pineapple juice, triple sec, almond and simple syrup on the Trader Vic's template — and the White holds its own anywhere a clean white rum is the soul of the drink.
Tasting profile: crisp and clean, with light fruity, herbal and floral notes, subtle cane sweetness and a smooth, mellow finish. Browse the Catalina Rum Company brand collection, more rum, and the full spirits collection at Del Mesa Liquor.
Serving note: neat, over ice, or as the base of a Daiquiri, Mojito or the Captain's Mai Tai.
