Estudo comparativo das características do rum de melaço de usina e rum comercial.

Abstract

In order to reduce doubts about the physicochemical integrity of Brazilian rum, whose export has increased considerably in recent years, it was the objective of the present study to establish the differences and/or physicochemical similarities between the molasses rum of mill and industry-made rum. Both, originating from sugarcane, however, are distinct. In this sense, a comparative study was carried out among rum samples obtained in the laboratory under almost identical conditions, aiming to establish their physical-chemical profiles and to describe the similarities and differences between these drinks. Thus, three samples, two of molasses, of different mills, another of commercial supermarket rum.
