SUGAR CANE RUMS

Sugar Cane Rums are made from fresh sugar cane juice as opposed to molasses, and as such retain more of the pure flavor of the sugar cane. They may be categorized as white or gold, depending on color/aging. These rums are particularly popular in French-Speaking Caribbean countries where they are known as Rhum Agricole. In Brazil, the popular sugar cane spirit is known as Cachaça, and is often considered more like a vodka in heat and taste. Aguardiente, Spanish for "painful water," is a harsh, unaged sugar cane spirit popular in Central America.
