Clairin Vaval Rum

Clairin Vaval is an exceptional, handcrafted Haitian agricultural rum (clairin) distilled at the A. Vaval distillery in Cavaillon. This expression is uniquely made from fresh cane juice, using the Madame Mevs variety of sugarcane, which is fermented spontaneously using only wild yeasts. It is then distilled in a small pot still, without the addition of water before bottling, resulting in a robust, high-proof spirit that captures the raw, terroir-driven essence of Haiti. Vaval is known for its intense, savory, and grassy profile, featuring vibrant notes of olive brine, tropical fruit, and distinct herbal spice. This artisanal process results in a complex, pure spirit that is far removed from industrial rums. It is highly valued by serious rum aficionados seeking an authentic, unadulterated drinking experience. Enjoy it neat to appreciate its complexity, or use it to bring an unparalleled backbone to classic tiki and rum cocktails.
