What is Pelacañas Llamarada Rum?

Pelacañas Llamarada Rum is a unique Mexican spirit made from 100% fresh-pressed sugarcane juice grown in the shadow of a volcano, offering intense tropical fruit flavors at still strength. Interestingly, it's crafted by a team that includes a "fogonero" or stoker, a traditional role in Mexican distilleries responsible for maintaining the perfect fire temperature during distillation, highlighting the blend of modern techniques and time-honored craftsmanship in every bottle.

Why do we love Pelacañas Llamarada Rum?

Cocktail enthusiasts will adore Pelacañas Llamarada Rum for its intense, fresh flavor profile derived from 100% estate-grown sugarcane juice cultivated in the shadow of Volcán de Tequila, and its unique production process involving wood fermentation and copper pot distillation that results in a bold, balanced spirit unlike typical molasses-based rums.

How do you drink Pelacañas Llamarada Rum?

Pelacañas Llamarada Rum shines best when sipped neat or with a single large ice cube to appreciate its bold, fresh flavors, though it also makes an excellent base for tropical cocktails on hot summer days; pair it with spicy seafood dishes or grilled pineapple for a delightful contrast.

Tasting Notes

How It's Made

Fun Facts

Product Details

Nose: Bright aromas of fresh-cut sugarcane and ripe tropical fruits dominate. Notes of papaya, pineapple, and green banana mingle with a hint of earl grey tea. There's a subtle undercurrent of wet grass and mineral tones, reminiscent of volcanic soil after rain.

Palate: Intense and full-bodied. The initial rush of sweet sugarcane juice is quickly balanced by a surprising buttery popcorn note. Layers of green apple, lime zest, and white pepper unfold. The high proof brings a pleasant warmth without overwhelming the delicate flavors.

Finish: Long and complex. The sweetness fades to reveal grassy, slightly vegetal notes. A lingering warmth carries hints of black tea tannins and a touch of oak. The finish concludes with a clean, mineral-driven dryness that invites another sip.

Pelacañas Llamarada Rum is crafted from 100% fresh-pressed sugarcane juice, fermented in open-top pine vats, and double-distilled using a unique combination of stainless steel and copper pot stills, resulting in an intensely flavorful, uncut spirit that captures the essence of its volcanic terroir.

Pelacañas Llamarada Rum is made from sugarcane grown in the shadow of an active volcano - Volcán de Tequila in Jalisco, Mexico. The volcanic soil imparts unique mineral characteristics to the cane, resulting in a rum with subtle smoky undertones.

This rum's name, "Llamarada," means "fire burst" in Spanish, but it's also the name of a vibrant flower that grows at the distillery's hacienda. The dual meaning reflects both the rum's intense flavor profile and its connection to the local ecosystem.

Unlike most rums that use molasses, Pelacañas Llamarada is made from 100% fresh-pressed sugarcane juice, fermented in open-top pine vats. This traditional method, combined with a unique two-step distillation process involving both stainless steel and copper stills, creates a rum with distinctive notes of earl grey tea and buttered popcorn.
