Cruzan - Rum Pineapple is distilled from sugarcane molasses or fresh cane juice, depending on the estate’s traditions. Fermentation times vary but are managed to strike a balance between robust flavor and clean spirit.

Distillation may be carried out in copper pot stills, column stills, or a combination, each choice influencing texture and strength. Aging in oak barrels adds further depth, with tropical climates accelerating the interaction between rum and cask.

Blending is conducted with precision to ensure consistency, with bottling done carefully to retain clarity and stability.

Cruzan - Rum Pineapple is a vibrant and juicy flavored rum, designed to deliver the sweet and tangy essence of ripe pineapple, blended with the smooth character of Cruzan rum. On the nose, it offers an immediate and abundant aroma of sweet, ripe pineapple, reminiscent of fresh-cut pineapple or a tropical fruit juice, beautifully balanced by the underlying sweetness of Caribbean rum. A subtle hint of citrus zest and a faint warmth can also be detected. The palate is smooth, sweet, and tangy, delivering a concentrated burst of juicy, ripe pineapple flavor. The sweetness is prominent but well-balanced by the pineapple's natural acidity and a subtle tartness, ensuring a genuine tropical fruit experience. The rum base provides a clean, gentle warmth that integrates seamlessly with the vibrant fruit. The finish is medium in length, wonderfully refreshing, and leaves a lingering impression of sweet and tangy pineapple with a smooth rum character.
This flavored rum is incredibly versatile, excellent for sipping chilled on its own, over ice, or as a vibrant and flavorful base for a wide array of tropical cocktails. For food pairings, its sweet, tangy, and tropical profile makes it an excellent complement to a variety of fresh and flavorful dishes, particularly those with a Caribbean or Asian influence. It pairs beautifully with grilled shrimp skewers, fish tacos with a pineapple salsa, or light chicken dishes with a fruit glaze. It's also a fantastic match for fresh fruit salads, spring rolls, or even a subtly spicy stir-fry. For dessert, consider pairing it with coconut cake, key lime pie, or a tropical fruit tart, echoing its fruity and refreshing notes. It's superb mixed simply with soda water, lemon-lime soda, or as the star in a Pineapple Mojito, Daiquiri, or a Rum Punch.
