Pure Cane wins "BEST INTERNATIONAL RUM" at US Awards

We are super chuffed today to announce that those esteemed folk at the American Distilling Institute have awarded Husk Pure Cane a gold medal, best in category, best in class and crowned it Best International Rum!

In Australia the super quirky Excise Act 1901 states that unaged rum (not aged in wood) cannot be called rum, so Pure Cane is technically a ‘Cane Spirit’. But to the rest of the world Pure Cane is indeed rum and has now won 11 internationally recognised rum awards to prove it.

Since the nineteenth century the French have been making rum from freshly crushed cane juice rather than molasses. This rum is so good that 90% of it is consumed unaged and neat or in a Ti Punch (a little raw sugar, a good shot of white rum, a lime cheek, stirred & sipped slowly). 

We’ve never had a big white rum culture in Australia and we’re hoping to change that drink by drink, showing you how fresh, vibrant, full-flavoured and generally incredible this style of rum can be. 

Drink Pure Cane with ginger beer and a squeeze of lime, in classic cocktails like the daiquiri, mojito or caipirinha, or French style in a Ti Punch.

You can now find Husk Pure Cane in selected Dan Murphys and BWS stores across the country. Or SHOP ONLINE NOW. Get around it!
