INDONESIAN CRAFT
HOW WE ARE MADE IS WHY WE’RE DIFFERENT
Sugar Cane
Molasses is extracted from Javanese sugarcane (saccharum robustum), an ‘heirloom’ strain of cane indigenous to Java.
RED RICE
Red rice is added to help cultivate wild yeast and kickstart fermentation giving unique character to the rum.
LOCAL WATER
Forest filtered water is added to the molasses and rice to begin a slow fermentation process.
UNIQUE DISTILLATION
Artisanal double distillation in traditional, rustic, steel-pot-stills produces a flavorful distillate.
TEAK WOOD AGED
Tropically aged in the local ‘Jati’ Indonesian teak wood barrels for 12—24 months.
Artfully Blended
Nusa Caña blend our pot still Indonesian rum with carefully selected aged column-still rum.
