Sugar Table

Hydrometer and refractometer test results showing added sugar content in various rums.

All values are converted to g/L of sugar.

Values below 5 g/L can effectively be treated as no added sugar, because measurement error and natural barrel-derived compounds can account for the difference.

Gray values indicate a measurement of less than 5 g/L of sugar.

Muted red values indicate a disagreement between refractometer and hydrometer of more than 5 g/L.
