Rums
White rum
All rums are produced from sugar cane. White rum can be a traditional rum or an agricultural rum.
Agricultural white rum is produced from pure fermented cane juice. Traditional white rum or industrial rum is produced from pure cane juice to which molasses is added. Molasses is the residue from the production of cane sugar. Molasses is a blackish liquid with a very high sugar content and a liquorice smell.
In other words, traditional rum is somewhat less pure than agricultural rum in its composition.
On the palate, white rum stands out with a dry and light body. White rum is a strong alcohol in the primary sense of the term. It has an alcohol content of around 50%. White rum is lightly sweetened, unlike amber rum whose ageing in wooden barrels amplifies the aromas.
White rum is most often translucent. Some white rum references can have a slightly golden hue. Indeed, the ageing of white rum can be done in metallic tanks but also in wooden barrels. The latter can give the white rum this slightly coloured aspect. The ageing of white rum can vary. Most of the time, white rum is aged for a few months. Some white rums can age for several years. There are therefore vintages of white rum.
White rum in Michelin-starred gastronomic restaurants
Unlike amber rum or old rum, white rum is much less present on the wine lists of the great addresses of haute cuisine. Moreover, just look at most rankings and comparisons of the best rums to see that white rum is rarely designated as the best. White rum is indeed a rum that is less "worked" than other rums. Amber rums and old rums are rums whose preservation in wooden barrels allows the obtaining of more aromatised and less alcoholic beverages. However, white rum retains a real appeal for lovers of good rums. White rum is in some way the essence of all rums. All rums being white rums more or less aged under varying conditions.
