Have 3x25ltr rum washes underway.
Would like to make some chocolate
rum, not just a hint but full on.
Has anyone tried or can help??
How much choc ?
What type?
Before or after stilling?
These two flavours need to come together.

Come on gezza, you must remember "Old Jamaica" , the chocolate bar with Rum flavouring and Raisins from 40 -45 years ago?

Where to insert your chocolate?
That to me is the biggest qestion,,,

And I think from an ecconomic viewpoint, you have to find a post spirit steeping method, or some of Icefevers excellantly discovered flavour juices, which I think bore the moniker of Monin.

As Ed says, I'd go for this....https://www.monin.com/en-gb/products/pr ... late-syrup

I've never tried the choc one....it would be a "try & see"

I am a dinosaur and he comes up with a good idea once in a blue moon.
We both have skin so thick that you would not believe, you will struggle to hurt us. ;) ;)
And both of us try to share the love. ;D

With hindsight I think that this thread proves something.
We can josh and we can talk Bolleaux for a bit of fun.
But if you want Chocolate in your spirit, do it afterwards.
