I don't know how I missed this thread... :whistle: but I've been making Googe's kale wash over the last year or so. I did change from sugar to Golden Syrup after the first few washes thou...it comes out as a beautiful rum
I use around 5.5 kg of golden syrup and 100grams of kale..I know GS can be expensive in some parts of the world.
Now I've added the kale in different ways over the last washes....I've blitzed it raw, I added it whole raw, and I've simmered it and then used the juice...and I must admit I can't see any difference in the outcome of the wash. They all finish out great....I run it through a pot still...then onto French oak for a few weeks.
In the end, I get a vanilla flavoured rum.... :handgestures-thumbupleft:
