I'm just curious but what is the reasoning of it not being a rum? Would you argue that rhum agricole is not a rum?

@AtlanticGRW 3 года назад

@@ozymandias3456 Gin is a clear spirit flavoured with juniper berries, but people don't consider it flavoured vodka even though it could technically be considered one, this is because the cultural impact of Gin makes it more important than it's technical classification, to me Cachaça not being a rum is kind of the same logic, while you could technically classify it as Rum just because it is distilled from sugar cane, it is not culturally considered Rum in it's country of origin, you wouldn't say Grappa, Brandy and Pisco are all the same spirit because they all come from different cultural traditions, likewise, Rum Agricole, even tho destilled from fresh cane juice like Cachaça, comes from a long cultural tradition of rum production in the Caribbean, thus shares mores things in common with other rums, as well as the same cultural space, it also has higher abv then Cachaça and, if aged, is generally aged in European woods, while Cachaça comes from a different cultural tradition in Brazil, this includes using Brazilian woods in barrels for curing (both in some light and dark cachaça) such as Jequitibá, Amendoim, Amburana, etc, as well as different destilation processes, usually done in one step, if you've ever tasted cachaça you know the taste is very different than rum as well, and while you could argue technical differences aren't enough to consider it a separate drink from Rum, the cultural impact of Cachaça in the Brazilian consciousness is as a completely different spirit.

@Graemyr 3 года назад

Your note on sweetness reminds me a lot of my Brazilian family, who put so much sugar in their caipirinha that it tastes like lime kool-aid

@quintonking5089 Год назад

Greg, in reference to your comment on bartending and building your drinks from least expensive to most expensive, I had an epiphany on how this is a two sided coin you could reverse I wanted to share… 1. Least expensive -> Most Expensive = Less chance to waste expensive spirits if you mess up and have to start over. If you do, you’re only out some sugar, citrus juice, mixer liqueur and can always make more. 2. Most expensive -> Least expensive = More spirit itself goes in the drink. Think about it. Any time you pour anything into a jigger, pour that into your shaker and then turn the jigger back right side up for the next ingredient, there’s always a little bit of whatever was in there left in the bottom that gets mixed in with the next ingredient. So in essence, you’re using all of your good spirit instead of leaving just that tiny bit of good stuff in the jigger if you build your drinks as indicated in method 1. I call it the barkeep’s share when that happens because I throw it back anyway and enjoy ☺️. My opinion, no wrong way to do it, and it might not make a dramatic difference, but just something to think about. All comes down to how confident one is in mixing cocktails, their preferred method of attack, and the viscosity of each ingredient. Something like Coco Lopez always goes in first in the jigger for me because I want al of it scooped up by the next liquid/ingredient. Home bartenders like us have a much less stressful environment and speed at which we must produce our beloved drinks. Cheers, brother!

@feyrworks Год назад

that's a really neat way of thinking about it, you're totally right! i hope more people see this, i think it could be pretty useful

@narfeyfjola Год назад

You're comparing a waste of an ounce or 2 or 3 to a few drops each pour. It's really very little, but also if you're just mixing cocktails at home, drink your mistakes. Even if you fuck up big time, you can probably make it taste alright

@SlenderPepe 3 года назад

I'm sorry Greg... but cachaça isn't kind of a rum. The main dfferene between the two is that rum is made of molasses, which is cooked from sugarcane juice. Cachaça in the other hand is made from the fresh-pressed juice of sugarcane, called garapa. So, saying that they are just different types of the same beverage is like saying that vodka and rye are the same beverage because they are made mostly from wheat. Anyways, I'm happy caipirinha made the list, because it's just an amazing drink. In Brazil, we actually make caipirinha from many kinds of fruits. Like strawberry, kiwi, pineapple and even watermelon if you are feeling sassy.

@howtodrink 3 года назад

Not all rum is molasses, at all. Agricola is fresh cane juice, lots of runs are made from a blend of fresh cane, refined sugar, and molasses. Really, I’m pretty sure *only* Jamaica uses a mash of 100% molasses.

@SlenderPepe 3 года назад

@@howtodrink I guess my rum knowledge isn't that great, my bad. Nevertheless, cachaça is considered the oldest destilled in Latin America, it was invented during the early 1500s in a sugarcane mill in Brazil and rum was originated more than a century later in Central America. I don't agree considering them the same beverage, but if you are doing it, wouldn't it be more apropriate to say that rum is a specific style of cachaça than the other way around?

@andrewcooper7256 3 года назад

@@tamedpassions9523 Cachaça is like tequila. It's an entirely different fermented product that goes into the still, so it's a different final spirit. You wouldn't call tequila (or more broadly, mezcal) a type of rum just because it's a distilled non-grain spirit that doesn't require aging, so why is cachaça being simplified? It's like saying brandy is just grape rum. Just because molasses and cane juice are both derivatives of sugarcane doesn't mean their spirits are the same.

@brendankearney3929 3 года назад

Here in the UK it's really difficult to get cachaça, so if I'm making a caiparinha I tend to have to use black rum instead. Gets essentially the right flavour profile, even if the visual aesthetic isn't there

@siegbert_schnoesel 3 года назад

@@andrewcooper7256 youre making it pretty easy for yourself. People call cachaca a type of rum because it has the same base like rum agricole. Saying that would be like comparing it to tequila is not very smart, because tequila uses a different base for the destilation.

@blairmulholland 3 года назад

It depends whether you think rum is made from molasses, or other sugar cane spirits can be called "rum". I tend to think not. We don't confuse whisky and vodka just because they're both made with barley, so why call cachaca a "rum"? It just isn't!

Keep in mind that he uses about 3x the sugar as the standard mai tai recipe, which is already pretty sweet. So if you like his recipe, great. If it seems cloying it's because his 'favorite' drinks usually have a lot more sugar than standard. Which, in the case of the mai tai, is exactly how he made it but with 1/2 oz total of 1:1 syrup, not 1 oz of 2:1.

@PostNukeProductions 10 месяцев назад

I don't mean to sound elitist saying this, but you'd probably be better off just mixing vodka or Bacardi with a mixer you like if you want something alcoholic that doesn't taste like it. It's simple, easy to do, and doesn't require any homemade ingredients. If you really wanted to make cocktails that hide the spirit, though, I'd say my 3 would be: Tom Collins Moscow Mule Mojito These all kind of follow the same formula of spirit-sweet-citrus-soda, but I'd say it works out to what it sounds like you're looking for.

Nice, I just discovered that rum might make my second favorite spirit, and here greg instantly delivers. I'm really liking this series, I'm looking forward to the gin, whiskey and sour ones :D Side note: I really like the new camera angle, but I think you should use it more deliberately, maybe when you want to show us the bottle or garnish, or for little anekdotes. In this one it looked like you just forgot about the new camera while recording, and then edited some of that footage in, which is probably a lot of work for you that doesnt really add anything... EDIT: I couldnt make the El presidente, but inspired by it I made something that I liked a lot, so here I'm sharing it: "El Ingeniero": 1.5 oz Spiced Rum (something candy-like), 1.5 oz Martini bianco (white vermouth), 8ml Aperol, 1 barspoon peach sirup. stirred.

My quick and simple go to rum drink would be 2oz (60ml) Spiced Rum of your choice, 2 slices of lime and Ginger Beer (non alcoholic type. Unless you want that extra kick, by all means go ahead) over ice, poured straight in a glass. One pub I go to does what they call a Perfect Storm, but they add mint and do 1oz spiced rum. Which is still pretty delicious. They’re both very refreshing, especially on those hot summer days or just want something light and so heavy.

I'm currently in love with the Planters Punch, but really I think I'm just in love with Plantation 5 year.

@caseyczarnomski8054 3 года назад

If you like the Plantation 5 Year, you have to try the Matusalem Gran Reserva. It's Cuban and is just as good, if not better. The price is a few dollars less too.

@sovashchetty4838 3 года назад

Hey so the new Resident Evil is out, I was wondering if you would make some cool Resi inspired drinks. Maybe a Nemisis, or Lady Dimitrescu. Would love to see your creative juices in those kind of cocktails.

Didn’t he already make a cocktail based on the t-virus from the release of RE2 remake?

It is "Cai" like Kite and "Pi" like Pizza. The first syllable is the strongest, there's also no pause between the pi and "rinha". Just go for it and say the whole thing in one go. CAI-pirinha.

@davidhockstad983 3 года назад

You don't need the new angle on talking shots. The change of angle to the "pour shots" is enough camera change to keep our attention.

@nick8726 3 года назад

Agreed. Greg, if it's costing you more, it isn't worth it. Speaking as a fellow editor, and a frequent viewer.

Calling Cachaça a rum is infuriating to me as a Brazilian because you’re 100% technically correct

@karenperez5937 4 месяца назад

Well, no because 'sugar cane juice' and 'sugar cane residue' are 2 very different things. It's like saying goat milk and dulce de leche are the same thing.

I'm in complete agreement. My 3 favorites in the rum world. I would also say Mai Tai is my absolute favorite of all time. Paradise in a glass.

For those that live in the UK, a rum (2 shots of Twin Fin) and Coke (zero) with a quarter of lime squeezed into and left in the glass before you pour is 👌 Drink from a pint glass and you're sorted for the evening

@jeffmazziotta 3 года назад

cool selection of drinks! love the different glasses and presentations on each of them as well. I especially want to mention that I am glad that you included a stirred drink with few ingredients for those of us without robust bar ingredients and equipment at our disposal. - such as myself in my tiny Tokyo apartment.

Couldn't believe how much better your El Presidente spec is than the one found in Smuggler's Cove. Night and day difference. Well done, sir!

@jenkibi 3 года назад

@cdsprech 3 года назад

Great stuff here! Love the Mai Tai, though I do really enjoy the rum split with agricole. You've inspired me to give El Presidente another shot, as I used dry vermouth last time and was unimpressed!
