White RumRum is an alcoholic liquor made from sugar cane by-products such as molasses and sugar cane juice which are fermented and distilled. The distillate, a clear liquid, is aged in oak casks. Rum is chiefly produced in the Caribbean and along the Demerara river in South America, but also in Australia and India. Famous for its association with piracy and the Royal Navy. There are dark rums, golden rums and white rums (actually clear in colour).
White rum (also known as light rum), is a dry light-bodied rum, clear or light in color, with a flavor that is slightly sweet, and milder than other rums. Unlike the other rums which are aged in charred oak casks, white rum is aged in plain oak casks or stainless steel tanks, so that it remains clear. It normally has a short distillation period. White rum tends to be the favored choice of rum for cocktails and other mixed drinks.
