A WORLD FIRST IN NEXT GENERATION DISTILLING

Introducing the ˚CELSIUS Project Cornwall: The world’s first geothermal rum distillery and cask maturation research centre. Run entirely by carbon-neutral and sustainable waste heat from the UK’s first operational deep geothermal powerplant, using our uniquely patent-pending design and technology.

3. Geothermal Cask Maturation Pods
Our innovative˚CELSIUS geothermal cask Maturation Pods: capable of recreating and precisely controlling the temperature and humidity of different climates for optimum maturation.
 

Powered by Geothermal Technology, every variable is considered, every outcome is measured, giving exact results and optimal flavour. 

Everything we do, we do by degrees: whether that’s how we build our business stage by stage, bring our team together, measure and improve our impact on the environment, how we support and employ members of the local community, or begin to clean up the landfill site we’re building our research centre on: every variable is considered, every outcome is measured- we are constantly learning and improving.

Hence, we named the project ˚CELSIUS: a movement for improvement working with nature- not against it, through constant nurturing and degrees of change.

— Matthew Clifford (Founder)

“The most exciting thing about this project is that my grandkids in the future will say "Grandad was part of The world’s first geothermal rum distillery and cask maturation research centre. A world's first in sustainable rum making... at the time. Yeah Mahn!”

— Ian Burrell (Global Rum Ambassador)

"We're always excited by projects that do good for people and the planet, and that create compelling, delicious products. Celsius covers all these aspects; it explores the fascinating world of rum to shine a light on a spirit that has such incredible diversity and history but is often only explored in simple ways, but the project also explores sustainable production and unique maturation through the world's first geothermally distilled and aged spirit. It'll bring a new sense of excitement to the beautiful landscape of Cornwall for generations to come"

— Ryan Chetiyawardana aka Mr Lyan, owner of World’s Best Bar and International Bartender of the Year (2015)
