Product description
Charanda is a Protected Designation of Origin (Denominación de origen) spirit made from sugar cane in the state of Michoacán in western central Mexico.
Casa Tarasco is a distillery of this spirit, a type of rum, founded in 1907 and still run by the Pacheco family. The distillery has both stills and a short French-type rectification column. The Uruapan brand is a tribute to the town of the same name, with which the Pacheco family is associated. The rum is produced using sugar cane of the Saccharum officinarum variety, grown in volcanic soil at an altitude of almost 1,300 meters above sea level.
Uruapan Charanda Blanco Pure Single Agricola is a rum made entirely from fresh sugar cane juice, and is therefore the Mexican equivalent of Martinique's rhum agricole. Distilled in an alembic, bottled as a 46% ABV spirit, released in limited batches.
