4. PRODUCTION
Rum is produced from sugar cane.
Freshly cut cane is cut and crushed among
the rollers to extract the juice.
The residual pulp called the bagasse is
crushed several times to extract all the
juice.

5. PRODUCTION
Bagasse is often used in factories as a fuel
in the boiler’s.
The extract is heated almost to the boiling
point.
It is then cooled and the crystallized sugar
is removed.

6. PRODUCTION
This results in rich, dark
syrup free of impurities.
The syrup is centrifuged,
by this process sugar
crystals are removed for
commercial sugar.
Leaves a very dark, treacly
liquid called ‘Molasses’ or
‘Black strap’.

7. PRODUCTION
This is then diluted with water & fermented.
There are two methods of fermentation-
Quick method –produce white & light flavor
rum
Slow method – produce dark & heavy rum
Distillation – the fermentation of rum takes
places by distillation of light rum in a patent
still & is done so in the strength of resultant
91%.

8. PRODUCTION
The resultant spirit will be white & have
only little flavor.
If the liquid is matured in uncharred oak
cask for a year, it will be sold as white
rum.
Should it be mature in charred cask for 3
years & have a little caramel added will be
known as gold rum.

9. PRODUCTION
The dark rum production will be distilled in
a pot still strength of 86% alcohol. The
spirit will be rich in congeners, flavors &
aroma genes.
Before bottling rums are reduced to a
portable strength of around 41% by
addition of demineralised water.

11. TYPES OF RUM
Lighter or Amber Rums-aged for one year in
glass or stainless steel or uncharred barells.

Aromatic rum-the combination of special
quality of the river water on the island of
java in Indonesia & the addition of dried red
Javanese rice cakes, which are added to the
mash during the fermentation, results in the
highly aromatic & dry taste of rum
