An aged rum is always a dark rum. Much of the aging of rum occurs in the country of production, and the impact is accelerated due to the climate and environment where the rums are being aged. Rum may also be sent away for further maturation in climates that are not quite as aggressive. Good aged rums offer a full spectrum of flavours.
What is aged rum?
As the name suggests, aged rum is a type of rum that has aged for a longer period of time. Rum is a sugar cane distilled spirit that is directly influenced by territory, technique and tradition. Most rums are bottled directly from the still, but some of the best rums are aged in wood casks, typically charred oak barrels. Sometimes the barrels were previously used to age bourbon, scotch, cognac or sherry. In some cases, the aged rum is allowed to blend and mature in another barrel for a second maturation.
The process of distillation, the barrels, and warm climates produce good aged rums that are darker in color, have a rich flavour, and are more aromatic than white or light rums. The quality of aged rum depends on the type of sugarcane used.
Apart from aged rums, there are different types of rum, from bright white ones to more brown ones. Aged rums fall into the latter category.
