Production Details:
Unlike many clear rums, Cruzan Light is aged in oak barrels for up to a year before being charcoal-filtered for purity. This gives it a depth and roundness that sets it apart from unaged white spirits. The island’s naturally pure water and slow distillation process result in a light rum that’s smooth, clean, and consistently high quality.

Perfect For:
Mojitos, Daiquiris, and Piña Coladas that deserve more than just a generic pour. It’s also ideal for sipping chilled on a hot day, or building refined highball cocktails with citrus and herbs.

Expert Notes:
Praised for its clean profile and versatility, Cruzan Light is a bartender’s favorite for premium white rum cocktails. Its subtle aging adds body without overpowering delicate mixers.
