INTRODUCTION

The word rum conjures up visions of swaying palm trees on white Caribbean beaches – a pirate ship may be gliding past in the distance. There’s good reason for this romantic tropical image: rum is usually made from molasses, a by-product of the cane sugar-refining process. So rum is traditionally produced where cane sugar is grown, and that’s in warmer, tropical climates like the West Indies, the Caribbean and Cuba.
