Old Monk White Rum: Light, Tropical and Exceptionally Versatile

Old Monk White Rum is a clear, mild-spirit expression from Mohan Meakin’s iconic Old Monk range in India. Crafted by blending a proportion of aged (7-year-old) rum with unaged white rum and then charcoal-filtered to a pure clarity, this variant offers a smoother and lighter take on the traditional Old Monk flavor profile.

On the nose, it reveals soft aromas of caramel and vanilla, complemented by citrus notes – orange and grapefruit – with a gentle backdrop of pepper, clove, and a tropical hint of coconut. The palate is smooth and subtly sweet, revealing layers of coconut, vanilla, light caramel, and citrus zest. A mild spiciness provides balance without overpowering its delicate body. The finish is clean, fresh, and gently fruity, with lingering coconut and vanilla notes over a dry, crisp fade.

Blended with carefully aged spirits, Old Monk White Rum maintains the signature vanilla essence of the brand but in a lighter, crystal-clear form. Bottled at 42.80 % ABV, it offers easy flexibility in cocktails and simple serves.

Best enjoyed chilled or on the rocks, it pairs beautifully with tropical-inspired cocktails such as mojitos, daiquiris, Piña Coladas, or with soda and fruit juices. It’s also a smooth base for lighter mixed drinks and highballs.
