Scran

The rise of Scottish rum - the expert's guide


Listen Later

On this episode of Scran, Rosalind finds out more about the growing trend for distilling Scottish rum.

Often cited as the next big thing following on from Scottish gin, the production of rum has been steadily growing in Scotland over the last two to three years.

Rosalind is joined by Jacine Rutasikwa, co-founder of Matugga Distillers in Livingston, and Kit Carruthers of Ninefold Distillery in Dumfries.

Kit and Jacine discuss why they decided to start making rum and how a rum can be Scottish, as well as giving advice for those looking to get into the industry. Jacine and Kit also chat about their favourite rum drinks and the upcoming virtual Scottish rum festival.

Nick Nairn is also back with his cooking tip and Rosalind discusses her lockdown food and drink of choice.
