The Flying Dutchman Rum is the first rum made in Europe. It is distilled from a very nice molasses of sugarcane. Two types of yeast, fermented at a low temperature, give it a nice fruity character. The fermentation takes at least two weeks. This is exceptionally long but important for the development for the delicate flavor of this rum. After the long fermentation time, the rum is distilled three times in small handmade red copper stills. After the distillation process, the rum is filled into barrels and aged for a minimum of 36 months in former Port barrels.
