This spirit spans the diaspora from Spain to South America. The raw material ranges from grape skins to sugar cane.

I was mucking about with some of the Spanish style, and we held a typical Galician themed meal ending as described here . It certainly got the party rolling!

In Madeira rum (known as Aguar dente) distillation from local sugar cane has sadly all but died in recent years, mainly because the sugar cane growing on the island is also dying out as crops of vegetables especially replace the small cane fields located in the island's warmest microclimate valleys.

I had the opportunity to taste the local produce of rum, and it is very, very pungent, smoky and carrying in it strong burned flavour. You either love it or hate it. Still I think Madeira must be one of the Northernmost places where sugar cane has been grown for centuries, and the loss of the local industry and rum is - a loss.

I have some of this product. It is labelled Aguardiente Verde. Not too badly.

i haven't had the Spanish stuff, but do regularly keep a bottle of the Colombian handy (Antioqueno is the brand).
Colombian aguardiente is distilled from Molasses and flavored with Anise, it is quite tasty, and very nice in mixed drinks.
