CABRAKÁN Poire Gingembre: artisanal rum with pear and ginger

CABRAKÁN Poire Gingembre is an artisanal rum arrangé made in Normandy, France. The recipe combines white agricultural rum from Guadeloupe with Rocha pear, ginger and cane sugar syrup. Its appeal lies in the contrast between the pear’s rounded, fruity character and ginger’s lively, warming spice. Rather than relying on a single dominant flavour, the blend develops in stages, moving from fresh fruit aromas to a more peppery, citrus-like note and a gently spicy finish.

On the nose, pear comes through first with fresh, juicy and subtly floral aromas. Ginger follows with a brighter character, bringing a hint of citrus and pepper. The palate opens smoothly, with the pear providing a soft, generous fruit impression. Ginger gradually adds warmth and energy, creating a balance between sweetness and spice. The finish is fresh, persistent and lightly piquant. This interplay gives the spirit its distinctive profile: the pear brings roundness, while ginger adds definition and keeps the overall impression lively.

CABRAKÁN places emphasis on small-scale, hands-on production. The producer explains that its recipes are prepared by hand, from ingredient preparation to bottling. Instead of relying solely on prolonged maceration inside each bottle, the team works through staged infusions and macerations in stainless-steel tanks, adjusting the process to suit the ingredients and the desired intensity. The aim is to maintain a consistent aromatic profile throughout production. The brand also states that its recipes are made without preservatives, artificial flavourings or colourings.

The rum base for this expression is white agricultural rum from Guadeloupe. It is combined with Rocha pear, ginger and cane sugar syrup to create a spirit that balances fruit with spice. The 70 cl bottle is listed at 32% ABV. The combination makes it an interesting option for people who enjoy flavoured spirits with a more distinctive aromatic character than simple fruit sweetness alone.

For serving, the producer recommends keeping the bottle away from direct light, shaking it before pouring and enjoying the rum chilled but without ice. Serving it without ice avoids unnecessary dilution and allows the pear and ginger notes to remain clear. A small pour in a suitable glass gives the aromas time to develop. It can be enjoyed as an aperitif or after a meal, and it may also be used in simple mixed drinks. A little sparkling water or a touch of citrus can complement the recipe, provided the added ingredients do not overpower the fruit and spice.

CABRAKÁN Poire Gingembre is suited to relaxed tastings, sharing with friends or gifting to someone interested in artisanal spirits. Its character is built around a clear flavour pairing rather than excessive complexity: fresh pear on one side, lively ginger on the other. The result is a smooth yet expressive rum arrangé with a gently warming finish.

As with any spirit, it is best enjoyed slowly and in moderation. For drinkers who appreciate fruit-led recipes with a spicy edge, this Normandy-made creation offers a distinctive way to explore the world of arranged rum, combining a Guadeloupean agricultural rum base with pear and ginger in a carefully balanced blend.
