Kronan Batavia Arrack is a traditional Indonesian sugarcane spirit produced on the island of Java, where arrack-making dates back centuries. Made from sugarcane molasses and fermented using a distinctive process involving local red rice and wild yeast, the spirit is double pot still distilled, producing a unique, intensely flavoured rum.

The use of red rice during fermentation is central to Batavia Arrack's identity, contributing to its characteristic earthy, smoky, and slightly funky flavour profile.

Batavia Arrack has been a traditional ingredient in punches since the 18th century and is now also used in many contemporary cocktails to add a distinctive layer of complexity.
