Ten To One Caribbean White Rum
For too long, rum has struggled to move beyond its complicated history, instead often settling for a narrative that feels uncomfortably restricted to old caricatures and narrow tropes around Caribbean culture.
Ten To One takes its name from a phrase by Dr. Eric Williams, Trinidad and Tobago’s legendary first Prime Minister. When rallying to preserve the first Caribbean federation of 10 countries, he famously said, “One from ten leaves zero”, reflecting the idea that we are stronger together than we are apart. The name also speaks to overcoming great odds and the “beauty in the blend.”
Visual : Translucent, crystal clear, and clean. Moderate viscosity. Nose : High intensity of white pepper, salt, grassy herbaceous quality, white flowers like jasmine, yellow flowers like honeysuckle, ripe citrus fruits, zesty, warm worn leather aromas, coriander, and lemongrass. Powerful yet clean. Structure : Clean and much more subtle on the palate. Crisp and full of lemon zest. Racy minerality and grassy herbaceous notes. Like walking in a field of freshly cut grass. White flowers. Persistent finish with slightly sweet undertones. Refreshing and delicate finish.
