Next-Gen Rum Spirits

DropWorks' Inaugural Product Uses a World-First Distillation Process

— May 26, 2023 — Lifestyle
DropWorks is on a mission to change the way people think about rum and its debut product is shaking up the category with a first-of-its-kind distillation process. DropWorks' self-described "high-quality eclectic product," Clear Drop Rum, was made possible with DropWorks' own cultivated yeast strain, Trinity Yeast, which is the world’s first three-strain symbiotic yeast.

This liquid is unaged, unadulterated and free from embellishments, and it shares only the best of the best from a long, slow distillation process. Clear Drop Rum is made with hybrid molasses and organic cane juice honey, both of which are fermented and blended on-site and is distilled using three custom-made, bespoke stills, including a double retort still, which is the first of its kind in England.

In terms of taste, Clear Drop Rum is said to share the taste of blueberries, vanilla ice cream and banana.
Trend Themes
1. High-quality Spirits - The use of a world-first distillation process to create high-quality rum spirits presents an opportunity for companies to innovate in the spirits industry.
2. Custom Stills - The creation and use of custom-made, bespoke stills presents an opportunity for companies to innovate in the distillation process and develop more unique and distinct spirits.
3. Organic and Hybrid Ingredients - The use of organic and hybrid ingredients in rum production presents an opportunity for companies to innovate in the sourcing and use of ingredients in the spirits industry.
Industry Implications
1. Craft Distilleries - Craft distilleries can leverage the use of custom stills and unique ingredients to create distinctive spirits and compete with larger, more established brands.
2. Organic and Natural Food Industry - The sourcing and use of organic and hybrid ingredients in rum production can create cross-industry opportunities for companies in the organic and natural food industry to collaborate with and supply the spirits industry.
3. Luxury Goods Industry - High-quality, handcrafted spirits like Clear Drop Rum can open up opportunities for luxury goods companies to expand their product line and appeal to a broader consumer market.
