FAQ
CURIOUS ABOUT RUM?
WHAT IS DARK RUM?
Dark rum can be found black, brown and red in appearance and is usually, but not always, aged longer than gold or white rum. It often indicates a more intense flavour profile, and is also delicious when used in cooking.
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN DARK, GOLD AND WHITE RUM?
Rum is a wonderfully complex and diverse spirit. Colour can give us clues about time spent aging or the flavours that might be found within. Dark can be bold, sweet (or dry) and even smoky, gold is rich and soothing, and white is smooth, subtle and often refreshing.
But colour can be misleading. The best way to truly understand a rum is to taste it for yourself.
HOW DO YOU MAKE RUM?
Rum is made using only three ingredients: molasses from sugarcane, yeast and water. Ingredients are fermented, then distilled, aged, filtered and blended.
