Speaker: Matthieu Lange<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

\"RhumThis year, we have chosen to address the topic of taste.

Like today, the question of taste involves several aspects: <\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013 The chemistry. Scientists are in search of taste. What is a good rum from a chemistry standpoint? What role do non-alcoholic elements play? <\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013 Flavor enhancers. What were the techniques used at the time to change the taste of rum? Where can you find pure rums?<\/span>\u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Speaker: Guillaume Ferroni<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

\"RhumThe finishes and double maturation are almost as old as the spirits. <\/span>
\n<\/span>First unintentionally performed for transportation purposes, following the discovery, carefully selected barrels were able to impose their brand or delicate styles on the spirits by introducing them while in their staves.<\/span>
\n<\/span>Then the tradition gave way to active and creative finishes. <\/span>
\n<\/span>Part of a small wave that first hit the world of whiskey is now a groundswell that flows through the world of rum.<\/span>
\n<\/span>Guillaume Ferroni, will provide an overview of finishes from the traditional to the most current, and provide a few cheeky surprises along the way.<\/span><\/p>\n
