About Pa’lante Rum:
Founded by a Cuban-American family, Pa’lante is a premium, artisanal rum crafted in Mexico by a master blender trained in the Cuban rum-making tradition. Pa’lante was born out of a desire to elevate rum as a premium spirit worthy of sipping and mixing into high-quality drinks and to celebrate the duality of feeling both American and Latino, of being from here and from there — de aquí y de allá.
Pa’lante’s expressions are made of 100% Mexican ingredients, from the sugarcane and molasses in its White Rum to the organic arabica beans in its Coffee Rum. It employs innovative barrel-aging methods for the Dark Rum, as the 8-year blend is aged in Mexican white oak as well as ex-bourbon American white oak. Pa’lante’s bottles boast fierce illustrations of historical figures who made significant contributions to their countries and Latin American culture, such as José Martí — Cuban poet and revolutionary — and Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz — Mexican feminist icon.
