The Origin of Rhum
Rhum, the French spelling for the English word "rum," has a fascinating history intertwined with the sugarcane plantations of the Caribbean. It is believed that the first sugarcane plantations were established in the Caribbean islands during the 17th century. The cultivation of sugarcane gave birth to the production of rhum, a distilled spirit made from sugarcane juice or molasses.
The French Art of Rhum Distillation
French rhum distillation is an exquisite craftsmanship passed down through generations. The French approach focuses on terroir, the unique combination of soil, climate, and growing conditions that imbue each rhum with distinct flavors. The process begins with selecting the finest sugarcane and extracting the juice, or fermenting molasses, to create a base for fermentation.
The Aging Process
After the fermentation process, the rhum is distilled and then meticulously aged in oak barrels. These barrels add complexity and depth to the final product, imparting rich flavors and aromas. The aging process can range from a few years to several decades, resulting in a wide spectrum of rhums with varying profiles.
