Rum is a high-alcohol distilled drink whose raw material is sugar cane. Rum, generally produced in Central America, Latin America and the Caribbean islands, is also known as the "drink of pirates".
The word Rom (Rum) is said to derive from the word Rumbillion, which means "noise, uncontrollable" in the local language of the region. Different sources indicate that Rum may have come from Saccharum, which is the Latin word for sugar.
The story of rum begins in the 15th century, when Christopher Columbus discovered the American continent and brought sugar cane to the exotic islands surrounding this continent. Rum, which was first produced in Brazil, Barbados and Jamaica in the 1700s, became a very popular drink in the colonial countries of America towards the 18th century.
One of the most important differences between rum and whiskey is;
Rum is not a drink with strict controls and regulations. It is even said that each island in the Caribbean has its own special rum. Therefore, we can call rum a free drink.
Rum is a “free” drink without regulations and strict controls.
