Rum

Rum is a distilled spirit made mainly by fermenting sugarcane juice or molasses and then distilling the result. It is produced widely in tropical regions, including the Caribbean, and is known for its wide variety of body and flavor. Many rums offer a balance of sweetness and spiciness. Light rum is generally fruity and light, while dark rum typically has a rich, complex taste. Rum can be enjoyed on its own, and it is also popular as a base for cocktails.
