Description
Saltwater Woody Real Lemon starts with the brand’s small-batch American . Real lemon is blended in, along with a touch of saltwater. The rum is distilled in the coastal South and bottled in Kentucky.
Open the bottle and it smells like fresh-squeezed lemonade. The first sip is zesty and bright. There is a hint of sweetness, but the lemon stays in charge. It ends with a tart, crisp zip.
At 35% ABV it sits a little lighter than a standard rum. Pour it over ice on a warm day, or top it with soda water or cola for a two-ingredient drink. Grilled seafood and salty beach snacks make good partners.
Its sister bottle, Real Grapefruit, took the top rum prize at the 2020 Bartender Spirits Awards. Pick up this lemon bottle if you like citrus drinks that taste like real fruit.
