Best Rums for Rhum Arrangé
Rhum arrangé is rum macerated with fruit, spices and sugar, a tradition from Réunion and the French Caribbean. The best base is a clean, affordable white or agricole rum at 40 to 50% with enough character to shine through the fruit. These are the community's favourite bases to make your own.
Rums in this list
Best for: agricole fans and Ti-Punch mixers
Most tasters land on the same verdict: a fresh, fruity agricole that shines in a Ti-Punch. The one recurring gripe is a finish that fades fast for some.
Clément Canne Bleue 2019
ClémentClément Canne Bleue 20198.0/10 (50 reviews)Sugarcane · Fresh · VegetalBest for: Ti'punch makers and fans of fresh white agricole
Most tasters like this fresh, floral single-vintage blanc, especially for ti'punch. A few feel the fruit on the nose doesn't fully carry into the taste.

Most rate it a rounded, spicy agricole that punches above its class — a favorite Ti' Punch base. One taster found the floral side steamrolled the rest.
Neisson Blanc

Members treat it as the reference white agricole and a steal for the money. It shines in a ti punch; a few find it a touch sharp and alcoholic neat.
Bologne Black Cane 2019
BologneBologne Black Cane 20197.9/10 (94 reviews)Sugarcane · Fresh · VegetalBest for: Ti Punch drinkers and agricole fans who like fresh cane
Loved as a Ti Punch base — bright cane, citrus and a lingering minty streak. Neat it's fresh and clean but, as a few noted, not especially memorable.
Depaz Cuvée de la Montagne - Rhum Blanc Agricole
DepazDepaz Cuvée de la Montagne - Rhum Blanc Agricole7.9/10 (72 reviews)Sugarcane · Fresh · FloralBest for: Anyone wanting an easy, clean white agricole for ti-punch or sipping
Widely liked as a clean, rounded blanc — grassy cane, lime and a honeyed sweetness that goes down easily. The trade-off most note: gentle and drinkable but short on complexity.
Bologne Blanc
BologneBologne Blanc7.3/10 (55 reviews)Sugarcane · Vegetal · FreshBest for: People who make ti-punch and rhum arrangé
A reliable everyday Guadeloupe blanc most people reach for in ti-punch or rhum arrangé. Sweet, cane-forward and fresh; a couple find the nose a bit industrial, but few complaints for the style.
Saint James Royal Ambré
Saint JamesSaint James Royal Ambré6.8/10 (67 reviews)Alcoholic · Spice · SugarcaneBest for: Cocktail makers who want an everyday Ti-Punch and Mai Tai base
Split verdict: as a neat pour many call it aggressive and overly alcoholic, but it earns real love as a Ti-Punch and cocktail base. A mixing bottle, not a sipping one.
Charrette Rhum Blanc
CharretteCharrette Rhum Blanc5.6/10 (24 reviews)VegetalBest for: People making ti punch, cocktails or rhums arrangés
Solid mixing and infusion white. Grassy and fruity, but the 49% shows hot on the palate, so most drink it in ti punch, cocktails or rhums arrangés rather than neat.
