The Journey of Rum Around the World

Rum is a noble beverage with a long history. Its origins can be traced back to the Canary Islands when Christopher Columbus brought sugarcane plants to the island of Hispaniola in the West Indies in 1493. The Caribbean archipelago proved to be perfect for growing sugarcane, marking the beginning of something significant. The sugar production resulted in a substantial amount of molasses, and soon it was discovered that mixing it with water and fermenting it in the sun produced a potent product. This led to the distillation of the remaining material in the 1650s, resulting in a high-alcohol beverage. Rum then spread with trading ships and became a beloved drink worldwide.
