Caña Blanca
Rum is a liquor made by fermenting and then distilling sugarcane molasses or sugarcane juice. The distillate, a clear liquid, is usually aged in oak barrels. Rum is produced in nearly every sugar-producing region of the world, such as the Philippines, where Tanduay is the largest producer of rum globally. Rums are produced in various grades. Light rums are commonly used in cocktails, whereas "golden" and "dark" rums were typically consumed straight or neat, iced ("on the rocks"), or used for cooking, but are now commonly consumed with mixers. Premium rums are made to be consumed either straight or iced. Rum plays a part in the culture of most islands of the West Indies as well as the Maritime provinces and Newfoundland, in Canada. The beverage has associations with the Royal Navy (where it was mixed with water or beer to make grog) and piracy (where it was consumed as bumbo). Rum has also served as a medium of economic exchange, used to help fund enterprises such as slavery ( ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

It is also called ''augardente'' or ''aguardiente'' (firewater), and ''caña''. ''Orujo'' has become an artisanal craft for some families who after making wine for themselves distill the pomace in a little pot still. Many high-quality distilled spirits have appeared in the last twenty years, including some origin appellations (in Spanish D.O.).

Polo (flamenco Palo)
''Polo'' () is the name of a flamenco palo or musical form. There is only one known song in this ''palo'', which is extremely similar to another palo called caña, and its guitar accompaniment, like the ''caña'', shares its rhythm and motifs with soleá. Both the ''caña'' and ''polo'' share the same musical mode. The ''polo'' has usually been considered as a derivation of the ''caña''. To complete the singing of the polo, singers usually sing a stanza in the ''palo'' of soleá, generally in the style called ''soleá apolá''. Although nowadays, only one song is known for the ''polo'', known as ''polo natural'', past writers also mention another ''polo'', called ''polo de Tobalo'', which has probably been lost. Poetic and musical structure The stanza of the ''polo'' is the ''cuarteta romanceada'', typical of most flamenco songs and Spanish folklore: four octosyllabic verses, the second and fourth rhyming in assonance. It is usually sung with the following typical lines: ''Carm ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
