Rum is the spirit behind the Mojito, the Cuba Libre and the Piña Colada. In short: rum is distilled from sugarcane juice or molasses, is usually 35–40% ABV, and comes in four main styles – white, gold, dark and spiced. At 5mara we stock 23 rums priced 4–42 JOD, from Jordanian Haddad rum to Bacardí and Havana Club.
