What goes into the making of a commercial rum? Let us look at what happened before bottling. Perhaps caramel, molasses or sugar was added to the rum. This will not be indicated on the bottle except for spiced rum (e.g. coconut rum, vanilla rum…). Water most likely have been added to the rum to reduce the strength to say 40% (80 ABV). You will probably not know if the rum was charcoal filtered (to make it crystal clear).
Quelles sont les étapes de l’élaboration d’un rhum commercial? Penchons-nous sur ce qui est arrivé avant l'embouteillage. Du caramel, de la mélasse ou du sucre a pu être ajouté au rhum. Ce ne sera pas indiqué sur la bouteille, sauf dans le cas de punch ou rhum aromatisé (par exemple rhum coco, rhum vanille...). Si votre rhum est à 40%, il a été vraisemblablement réduit par addition d’eau. Si votre rhum a été filtré au charbon (pour la rendre transparent) vous ne le saurez probablement pas.
