What Is Premium Rum?

A spirit made from fermented sugar cane or molasses, premium rum is beloved across the world for its toasty, sweet flavor and complex oaky notes. Whether light or aged, rum adds a tropical, caramel-forward kick to every rum cocktail. Barbank’s selection of premium rum includes rare rum and rum staples to inspire a wealth of tropical at-home tipples.

Where Does Rum Come From?

With roots throughout the Caribbean and South America, rum is one of the oldest and most revered spirits in the world. After a long history in the British Navy and American colonies, this spirit is now enjoyed all over the globe and is beloved for its toasted, sugary flavor. 

How Is Premium Whiskey Rum  Made?

The first step in rum-making is creating the sugar mixture for fermentation—in the old days, the mixture was made from the byproducts of sugar production (molasses and sugar cane juice, for instance). The sugar mixture is fermented, then distilled. Some rums are matured in wooden barrels, and some in stainless steel tanks. All are filtered, then bottled, shipped, and sold to rum lovers everywhere.

What Are The Different Types of Premium Rum? 

Rum comes in a few different varieties, all with unique flavor profiles to suit each palette, preference, and purpose.

Spiced 

Spiced rum is an infused rum. There are no hard and fast rules for what constitutes spiced rum, but most spiced rums have flavor notes of oak, vanilla, toasted sugar, caramel, cinnamon, and cloves. 

Light 

If you order a well drink with rum, you’ll probably be poured a serving of light rum (also known as silver or white rum). It has a lighter, cleaner flavor (great for mixing) and is typically more affordable than other rums. 

Dark 

Dark rum takes on its signature color, rich taste, and aroma through aging in charred oak barrels, and from its richer base ingredients, like molasses and brown sugar harvested during the final stages of the sugar refining process. Aged rum is fantastic for sipping and savoring.

Gold

Much like spiced rum, gold rum has a sweeter taste compared to light and dark making it a unique rum. It also doesn't have additives like spiced rum does in the form of caramel or other sugars, deriving its color from the oak barrel.
