White rum Rhum Dolomites quality. The great fame and numerous awards received by rum from the Zu Plun distillery encouraged the company experts to expand the range with another “”exotic”” specialty. White rum, like its darker brother, is distilled using molasses from Central America, which reach Europe across the ocean through the northern port cities of Amsterdam and Hamburg. It is stored, however, in barrels which have previously been used for dry white sherry. The sherry sediments in the barrels prevent the typical woody tones and their colourings, while the typical smoky aromas reach the distillate. The final palate pattern offers a fruity aroma almost reminiscent of mescal.
