Paranubes is a 100% Oaxacan Agricole Style Rum produced in the Rio Tuerto, Huautepec region of Oaxaca, Mexico. Literally translating as Above the Clouds, this rum comes from the home of the Mazatec people. The sugar cane is grown between 3,500 & 6,000ft and is distilled in a canyon at 3,650ft. The Master Distiller, Jose Lus Carrera, has been producing aguardiente for over 35 years and belongs to a long-standing community-based coffee co-op.

4 varieties of sugar cane are grown organically (no artificial pesticides are used – only natural fertilisers) – Caa Criolla, Caa Dura, Caa Dulce, Caa Morada. Freshly pressed the same day the cane is harvested, it is then milled, naturally fermented over 24-48 hrs, single distillation using a 6 plate copper hybrid still, and finally bottled and hand-labelled on site. No water is added at any point resulting in a 54% ABV incredible rum with an pungent fresh cane aroma, rounded funky notes on the pallet & smooth finish.
