Light rum has no color and a light flavor. But that doesn’t mean it can’t be the star of the show. In fact, light rum is known for being a powerful, yet subtle, way to take your mixed drink to the next level. What are you waiting for?

Light rum is made from fermenting molasses or sugarcane juice and then distilling it. Specifically, light rum doesn’t need to be aged very long and can be bottled shortly after distillation.

Light rum is made and filtered several times until it’s free of impurities, while dark rum starts off the same way - but instead of bottling it, it’s left to age in charred oak or wooden barrels. In turn, dark rums tend to have bolder flavors than light rums.

We recommend adding light rum into your cocktails because it’s sweeter and not as overbearing as dark rum.

Yep. Light rum is the exact same thing as white rum. You’ll see them used interchangeably on bottles, as well as, “silver rum.”
