Distillery: West Indies Rum Distillery

Renegade Barbados Rum is made from raw sugar cane that is distilled at the West Indies Rum Distillery first through a column still and then twice through a pot still. In Barbados, distilleries are required to apply for a license to operate a still and are granted a license number upon approval of their application. The West Indies Rum Distillery operates Stills 62, 73, 77 and 79 Stills 62 and 73 are traditional copper-pot stills and Stills 77 and 79 are four-column stills. The wash distilled through the column stills produces a rum that is light in flavor and body, while the copper-pot stills produce a rum that is more intense and robust. By distilling the rum through both the column and pot stills, the West Indies Rum Distillery is able to produce a rum that is soft and delicate, but bursting with flavor.
