Using an Air Still to Test Rum Recipes | Boothstown Gin (3x16)

:

Today at Boothstown Gin, we are using the air still to test out different spiced and dark rum recipes which we will later scale up on our big copper still, Tessy. We experimented with a number of different botanicals such as cola nuts, grapefruit peel, star anise, and ginger, to come up with our final rum recipes. After we were happy with our ingredient list we also experimented with adding homemade caramel, toasted oak sticks, raisins, and natural food colourants to see how they would impact the flavour and colour of the final rums.
