The sugar cane juice is mixed with a special yeast formula prepared by Rhum Barbancourt’s laboratory and then placed into special vats for the fermentation stage. Maintained at the optimal temperature of 30 degrees Celsius, the yeast initiates the process of transforming the sugars into alcohol.
Approximately 72 hours are needed to obtain a cane wine with 7% of alcohol that will be sent for distillation. The fermentation process is longer than most other rums in order to have an alcohol that is richer in aroma and taste.
