Mhoba 2017 FAQ Plastic Pure Single Rum is a new project led by Luca Gargano. Mhoba 2017 is a rum produced from pure cane juice without adding any input during the various stages of production: no pesticides, no enzymes, no coloring or sweetener. In short: “subtraction not addition.”
Mhoba rums are produced from the Nkomazi variety of sugar cane grown within the farm next to the distillery. The sugar cane is cut by hand and pressed by an in-house made mill. The cane juice is fermented in part by local baker’s yeast as well as wild yeasts. Distillation is carried out using a unique pot still designed by Robert Greaves.
The purpose of this still is to create maximum reflux in order to develop heavy and particularly aromatic rums.
The Mhoba 2017 FAQ Plastic Pure Single Rum is a very limited release by VELIER.
