In the mountains of St Andrew's, on the north-east coast of the island, nestles Dunfermline - a venerable distillery lost to Hurricane Ivan - where the loamy silt has been a good source for sugar cane cultivation for centuries. Distilled in a column still rum at the Renegade distillery in Grenada. This rum has been drawn from a sucrose rich cane variety called Lacalome Red, harvested at Anderson's Field, which is in the area known as Mango Lane. Renegade rums are made with sugar cane juice as a primary ingredient, they are natural in colour as in texture, unsweetened and un-chill-filtered.
