Hi,
I posted an intro a few weeks ago as a journo looking for folks to comment via their forum ID only (no real names), on producing pot still, high ester Jamaican-style rum with dunder.
Specifically, I want to hear from anyone who is focused on this style predominantly. Why did you choose it? Did you have an experience with high ester rum either in Jamaica or elsewhere that imprinted on you? Do you try to emulate the style because of the unavailability of the product in the market or your curiosity and propensity to experiment? I've already drafted a story for Punch.com with very helpful comments from three forum users, but I am now trying to bolster the piece with words from someone that pursues this style specifically.
Thank you in advance.
Lauren

Are you talking about a molasses wash using dunder? If so a damn lot if not most do rum this way

I make my rum Jamaican style using live dunder as well as backset from the previous run. Lotta variations on this style but I have found what works for me.
