Bullion Spiced Rum: How Our Use of Triple Distilled Sugar Cane Sets Us Apart and Makes a Better Base


  1. Flavour Profile

Triple distilled sugar cane is a neutral spirit, meaning it has a very mild flavour profile. This makes it an ideal base for spiced rum because it allows the spices and other flavours to shine through without being overpowered by the flavour of the rum itself. In contrast, aged rums have a more pronounced flavour profile that can compete with the spices, potentially throwing off the balance of the final product. By using triple distilled sugar cane, Bullion Spiced Rum ensures that the spices used in their recipe are the star of the show.


  1. Consistency

Aged rums can vary widely in flavour depending on the length of time they've been aged and the type of barrel they were aged in. This variability can make it challenging for producers to create a consistent flavour profile for their spiced rum from batch to batch. Using a neutral spirit like triple distilled sugar cane as a base ensures that the flavour of the spiced rum will be consistent from batch to batch, which is important for brands looking to establish a consistent flavour profile for their product. At Bullion Spiced Rum, we are committed to creating a premium spiced rum that tastes the same every time you pour it.


  1. Cost

Aged rums can be quite expensive, especially if they are aged for a long time or in a specific type of barrel. Using a neutral spirit like triple distilled sugar cane as a base can be more cost-effective for producers, allowing them to allocate more resources to sourcing high-quality spices and other ingredients. By using triple distilled sugar cane, Bullion Spiced Rum can focus on sourcing the best spices from around the world and perfecting the recipe to create a truly exceptional spiced rum.

In conclusion, while aged rums can certainly be used in the production of spiced rum, using triple distilled sugar cane as a base can offer a number of advantages in terms of flavour, consistency, and cost. At Bullion Spiced Rum, we believe that using triple distilled sugar cane allows our signature blend of spices to shine and creates a unique, consistent, and delicious spiced rum experience.
