Five Rivers Rum
The world’s first Indian botanical-spiced white rum. Sugar cane was introduced and cultivated in India as early as 6000 BC and today India is one of the largest sugar-producing countries in the world.
“The spirit of a country, the spiritual home of rum”
The word sugar is believed to be derived from the Sanskrit word “Shakara” meaning ‘gravel’ or ‘sand’ (modern term ‘granulated’).
The land of Five rivers
A rum born in the north Indian state of Punjab, translating as ‘The land of five rivers’ (‘Panj’ meaning five and ‘-ab’ meaning water). At the foothills of the Himalayas, these five mineral-rich rivers begin, nourishing the surrounding fields as they flow, land abundant in sugar cane and spice plantations.
