Mexican Rum FAQs

Does Mexico make rum?

Yes, Mexico produces rum from its own sugar cane, though it is better known for tequila and mezcal. Brands like Mocambo and Ron Prohibido show the range, from long-aged dark rums to clear silver styles.

How should I drink an aged Mexican rum?

Sip an aged rum like Mocambo neat or with a single ice cube to taste its oak, vanilla and dried fruit notes. Use a tumbler or tasting glass and add a few drops of water if you like.

What is the difference between silver and aged rum?

Silver rum is clear and light, with little or no ageing, which makes it a good cocktail base. Aged rum spends years in oak, gaining colour and deeper flavours of caramel, vanilla and spice.
