Rum and Pirates<\/h4>\n

The stories of pirates and rum are well-known, and they do have some historical truth. Caribbean islands were major centers for rum production due to widespread sugar cane plantations and distilleries. Rum was cheap and became a key part of the local economy and trade, often carried to Europe across the ocean. For sailors, rum was a practical choice as it didn\u2019t spoil like water or beer, making it ideal for long voyages. Pirates, living off the goods of plundered ships, found rum both a delight and a necessity for survival. The chaotic governance of the Caribbean allowed pirates to frequently raid cargo ships, many of which carried rum.<\/p>\n

Rum in Literature and Movies<\/h4>\n

Literature and films have heavily influenced our perception of pirates and rum. Robert Louis Stevenson\u2019s novel “Treasure Island” and popular movies like \u201cPirates of the Caribbean\u201d have cemented rum as the quintessential pirate beverage.<\/p>\n

Light Rum in a Cocktail Glass<\/h4>\n

Light rums, also known as white rums, are prized for their purity and versatility. They undergo multiple distillations to achieve a lighter, cleaner flavor, making them perfect for cocktails. Classic cocktails like mojito, daiquiri, and rum and coke feature light rums as they complement rather than overpower other ingredients.<\/p>\n

Tohi Rum Blanco \u2013 An Estonian Rum?<\/h4>\n

Estonia doesn’t produce rum due to its climate, but Tohi Distillery has sourced and blended a perfect light rum from the Caribbean, specifically from Trinidad & Tobago and the Dominican Republic. This carefully selected rum is bottled with pride in Estonia.<\/p>\n

Here\u00b4s two simple rum cocktail recipes that anyone can master:<\/p>\n

Mojito<\/strong>
\n– 40 ml Tohi Rum Blanco<\/a>
\n– 10 fresh mint leaves
\n– 2 tsp white sugar
\n– 25 ml freshly squeezed lime juice
\n– Sparkling water
\n– Ice cubes<\/p>\n

Crush mint leaves and sugar in a highball glass, add lime juice and rum. Fill with ice cubes, stir gently, add sparkling water, and garnish with a mint leaf.<\/p>\n

Rum and Coke<\/strong>
\n– 40 ml Tohi Rum Blanco<\/a>
\n– 120 ml cola
\n– Lime wedge
\n– Ice cubes<\/p>\n

Fill a highball glass with ice cubes, add Tohi rum and cola. Squeeze in the lime wedge and stir gently.<\/p>\n

When life gives you lemons, trade them for rum! Cheers!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
