We were recently introduced to Chic Choc Rum. One of the first things we were told was to make a delicious cocktail. There are a good handful of refreshing cocktails on their website like the Chic Buche and the Chic-Lantro which tastes like spiced mojito!
Chic Cho Rum features Boreal spices: peppery green alder, pine forest spikenard, witherod berries, lovage root, sweet galseeds and wild angelica.
