DistilaMax™ CN is a natural strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae isolated by the Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais in Brazil. Due to its ability to work well on fresh sugar cane-juice and cane molasses, the strain is recommended in the production of all the types of aromatic and complex rums and rhum agricole.
DistilaMax CN displays a complex and well-balanced aromatic profile due to the production of key esters and phenyl-2 ethanol. It shows good tolerance to osmotic stress and performs well in adverse conditions, at high temperatures up to 40°C and a pH range 3.4 – 5.3.
