Puerto Rico Rum Socks
Main Tag:
Description: Rum production has been an important part of Puerto Rico since the 16th century. While sugar cane harvesting has virtually disappeared in Puerto Rico (except for a few isolated farms), distilleries around the island still produce large amounts of rum every year, including 70% of the rum consumed in the United States. Puerto Rico has laws that lay out requirements defining Puerto Rican rum: It has to be made with molasses from sugar cane juice, must be produced using a continuous column still, be aged for a minimum of one year in white oak barrels, and lastly, it must be distilled and aged in Puerto Rico.
