Clairin

Clairin is a Haitian version of rhum agricole—a clear spirit that is made from sugar cane. The drink is exclusively produced from local sugar cane that is harvested by hand and transported by animals. No artificial yeast is added during fermentation, and it must be bottled immediately after distillation.

Clairin is a rustic and pure rum that perfectly expresses terroir and often displays herbaceous, vegetal, earthy, and grassy notes. Most Clairin is produced by small, craft distilleries that are scattered around Haiti. The drink has recently seen an upsurge in popularity and export, often appearing on cocktail menus around the world.
