Monymusk Overproof White Rum 1L

Jamaica's White Overproof Tradition, Monymusk-Style
The Monymusk Estate has been making rum country since 1949, and its overproof white carries the estate's clean-house style: the same pot-and-column DNA as the classic Jamaican white overproofs, but triple-distilled for purity and deliberately restrained on the funk — coconut water, unripe banana, pear, and pineapple rather than the full ester blast. At 126 proof and a full liter, it is built for the daiquiri, the ti' punch, and the rum punch that needs real backbone. See the Monymusk Plantation collection and more overproof and white rums at Del Mesa.
Tasting Notes
Clean and high-toned at full proof — coconut water and unripe banana, pear and pineapple, a clean alcoholic lift with restrained funk and a long, warm finish. Purity first, funk second.
How to Enjoy
Respect the 126 proof — in daiquiris, ti' punches, and rum punches it is unmatched; sip neat only if you know what overproof Jamaican white does.
