  1. Just wanted to ask the hive mind here if anyone has a template that they would be willing to share with me to document their barrel inspections? We have several hundred filled barrels now and I want to implement a documented weekly inspection program that our warehouse manager must sign-off on. Seems like it would be rather simple to put one together, but its always good to look at what other folks are doing Thanks! Dave
  2. We have extra stock of organic certified juniper berries packed in 25kg bags. We have 1000kg for sale. We purchased these directly from the producer in Albania and imported them earlier this year to use in the production of our organic gins. We purchased a little too much though! Attached is the organic certificate and specifications from the supplier. Please feel free to reach out if you are interested in purchasing our overstock dschroeder@fairlytradedorganics.com Product is in Paraguay, South America but we are experienced exporters. Asking $25,000 for the ton Thanks! David www.legadodistillery.com 20210907 - Juniper Berries - Specification Sheet.pdf BIDAJ - NOP Certified Product List - 1.pdf
  3. If anyone is looking for bulk rums... I would love to chat! We own the sugar mill and produce our organic certified rums (light column rums and heavier copper pot rums) onsite. We distill some varieties from molasses and others from cane syrup (called 'miel de caña' here) We have a 3000 barrelhouse too where we age We ship worldwide and count E&A Scheet and Bardinet as bulk clients. dschroeder@fairlytradedorganics.com Thanks!

  4. Thanks for the well thought out answer! Being in Paraguay, access to a wide variety of activated carbon can be challenging, but we´ll start the hunt! Thanks again!
  5. I thought I'd use the hive mind for this question - We have a client that wants a very specific blend of our rums. It is 97% fresh column rum and 3% rum aged 3 years. The resulting blend has a very nice aroma and flavor profile that they approved, but after approval, they asked if we can de-color as it does have a yellow-gold color. Well, the client is always right so... We used our activated carbon filter and gravity filtered the blend. It took 3 passes, but the resulting liquid was as clear as water (and very smooth). While the customer was happy with the transparency, they did not approve the sample because the aromas changed (well....duh!) Anyhow, any ideas on how to filter out color without changing aroma? Or, how to add the aromas back in? We are going to do a rum essence of the aged rum in our rotovap to see if we can dose the aroma and flavors back into the filtered spirit....I don't have high hopes for that approach, but have to try. Any other ideas? Thanks!
  6. we use a biomass boiler to run our distillery with our own sugar cane bagasse. We run a 5000 liter and 2000 liter pot still on a 1/2 ton biomass boiler. Works fantastically well. The only thing we have noticed is that we do need to supplment at with wood to get it going or else it takes forever to heat up
  7. We produce organic certified light rum distilled from our own molasses produced at our organic sugar mill. We sell to Europe in iso tanks and can supply in ibc. dschroeder@fairlytradedorganics.com
  8. New to the board and just wanted to introduce our distillery. About a year ago, we completed construction on our craft distillery in Arroyos y Esteros, Paraguay. We opened shop next to our organic sugar mill, which was the first organic certified mill in the world...so being that we have an abundance of raw materials to work with, we built a zero carbon footprint distillery that runs on steam from boilers fired by our own bagasse. We recycle our water and use all of our discarded pot stillage as an input for fertilizers we use in our cane fields. We are making several lines of organic certified cane neutral based gins and still working on our rums
