A specialist active dried rum distiller’s yeast. This strain produces an optimum congener profile for full-flavoured, smooth and rounded rum spirit.

Application

For fermentation of sugar, treacle, molasses or sugar cane juice for distillation of Rum spirit using the Alembic Pot Still System. You can also use the Grainfather Brewing System with the Pot Still Alembic Dome Top and Copper Condenser. For a result with less character, the Turbo 500 System or the Grainfather with the Turbo 500 Stainless Steel Condenser and Turbo 500 Copper Condenser can be used, if the ceramic saddles are removed, instead of using the Pot Still Alembic Dome Top and Copper Condenser. If attaching the Turbo 500 condenser to the Grainfather, you will need the lid attachment.
