Founder’s Blend Rum
We’re gonna say it again for the folk in the back, rum categories are confusing. A blend means the bottle combines different rums —in this case a combination of our Solera Aged Gold Rum and Silver Rum. Merging these two spirits at a higher ABV (47.5%), offers a stellar sipping spirit that adds magic to your favorite rum cocktails. The founders of CCC created this rum to celebrate our founding in 2023. It is reminiscent to the rum we were tasting early in our distillation and aging process. Shoutout to the Chicago Rum Club for their help making this bottle possible.
