Clairin

Clairin (French pronunciation: ​[klɛʁɛ̃]; Haitian Creole: Kleren) is a distilled spirit made from cane sugar produced in Haiti, that undergoes the same distillation process as rhum, although less refined, and raw.[1] It is sometimes referred to as a white rhum because of the similar qualities.[2][3][4] It is considered to be a cheaper option than standard rhum in Haiti and as a result it is consumed more.[1][5]
