Carbon-Neutral Rum Distilleries

The Sustainable Distillery Research Centre is Efficient

The 'Celsius' Sustainable Distillery Research Centre is a new distillery from the Cornish Geothermal Distillery Company founded by Matthew Clifford that's expected to find a home in Cornwall, UK. The distillery would feature a carbon-neutral design that makes use of geothermal power in order to keep the facility running, while also helping the rums to mature in casks. This is done by accurately recreating the temperature and humidity of environments from around the world in order to achieve flavor profiles that might not otherwise be possible.

Clifford spoke on the new 'Celsius' Sustainable Distillery Research Centre saying, "This is the most significant milestone our project has achieved and it makes Celsius very real. The concept and principle of the project is now formally established and has the official go ahead to proceed.”
