Refreshing Strong

Cuba Libra는 클래식 Cuba Libre의 변형 철자로, 다크 rum에 신선한 라임과 코카콜라를 얼음 위에 서빙하는 동일한 방식을 유지합니다. ABV 9.85%의 중간 강도로 마시기 편한 하이볼로, 다크 rum의 당밀 깊이가 코카콜라의 카라멜 단맛과 라임 주스의 신선한 새콤함과 조화를 이룹니다. 라임 주스와 껍질이 단순한 rum 앤 콜라와 구별되는 핵심 시트러스 밝기를 더합니다.

History & Origins

Cuba Libre (or Libre) has its origins in Cuba around 1900, following the Spanish-American War and Cuba's independence, with the name meaning 'Free Cuba.' The drink's emergence coincides with the introduction of Coca-Cola to Cuba during the American occupation. Its origin is disputed among several accounts, though the combination of rum, cola, and lime became synonymous with both Cuban culture and American commercial expansion in the early 20th century.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Dark rum's molasses and fruit, the sweet caramel-vanilla of Coca-Cola, and a bright fresh lime note. Palate: Sweet and refreshing; the dark rum's richness blends with the Coca-Cola's complex sweetness and carbonation, while the lime juice adds a clean citrus tartness. Finish: Sweet and medium-length with a citrus and rum fade.

Pro Tip

Rub the cut edge of the lime around the rim of the glass before squeezing the juice in, to deposit the citrus oils on the rim for aromatic effect with each sip.
