Re: Corona virus etc. and handwash.

Hey thecroweater & cranky... yeh it's getting bad here too, the missus had to go to 6 different shops just to get 12kg of sugar because they have a 2kg limit. I've also noticed that my broadband speed has just about halved which takes me back down to 15Mbit/sec... thankfully my kids are now done...

I have 'Soxhlet' infused dried mango into a flask of the rum, the flavours go very well together.

Re: How to classify sugar wash spirits?

Yes it came out a medium flavoured rum, slightly lighter than a molasses and raw sugar rum Cheers mate I might give it a run some time. The last molasses wash I did I let sit for 18mths and when I tried it the taste was halfway between a rum & a whiskey... hence I called it Rumskey. Damn I wish...

Re: White Sugar Nutrients Informantion
