Review: Cruzan Guava Rum

by Jeff Ellingson

cruzan guava - CopyCruzan Guava rum was introduced May 2008.  It was the first and now over six years later, the only guava flavored rum.  It is one of 15 rum flavors Cruzan creates with rum distilled in St. Croix with tropical rain water and high quality molasses.  They use a five column distillation process and they remove the heads and fusel oils from each batch before aging in oak barrels.  The rum is then shipped to the Florida Caribbean Distillers in Auburndale Florida where natural guava flavor is added before bottling at 55 proof.  The guava is native to Mexico, Central and Northern South America.  While there are several varieties of guava, the apple guava is by far the most popular.  It is round to oval in shape and typically green when ripe.The aroma is fresh crushed guava with a hint of grapefruit and rum.  The flavor enters as a sweet rum enhanced fresh guava.  As the flavor builds, I pick up some light spice before fading with a mild mouth warming and a touch of heat on the finish.  This is a very smooth, flavorful rum that you will enjoy just as much served over ice, as mixed in a cocktail.
