What it is
The time-machine rum: River Antoine — Grenada's estate rum made as in 1785: waterwheel-crushed cane, open fermentation, wood-fired pot stills, bottled at 75% (150 proof, the 'Rivers' that locals dilute to taste) — the Caribbean's most traditional distillery, still running. Origins: the Antoine estate (1785) on Grenada's northeast; its wheel and aqueducts are the oldest working waterwheel in the western hemisphere. Made from: estate cane juice, wild fermentation, pot distillation. How it's made: 1) Waterwheel crushes the cane. 2) Ferment in open vats. 3) Fire the stills with wood; bottle strong. Served: cut with water, chased with more water, at the estate and Grenada's rum shops — visitors are warned with love. Flavor: raw cane fire, funk, history. Strength: 75% (and a 69% 'export' for planes — it may not fly at 75). Culture: Rivers rum is Grenada's liquid heritage; the distillery tour is a pilgrimage. See also: Grenadian Spiced Rum.
