FNQ Rum Co Platinum Cane Spirit

$75.00

If there was ever a liquor that could taste like the endless summer the tropics brings, it would have to be a traditional white cane spirit.

The FNQ Rum Co Platinum Cane Spirit starts from the fermentation on site of freshly crushed Cairns Highland sugarcane juice, prized for its high flavour and mineral qualities as a result of being grown in rich red volcanic soil at altitude.

The ferment is then distilled three times in our copper pot still (affectionately named Helga) for ultimate purity and flavour.

All water is sourced from a deep volcanic spring which is rich in minerals and crystal clear.

From Mojitos to Cane Spirit Frappes; Daiquiris to Sugar Cane & Ginger Swizzles… or just neat over ice, the FNQ Rum Co Platinum Cane Spirit is an endless summer tipple that needs to be on your list.
