Cape Verde is world renowned for its beautiful beaches and musicians. But one island in Cape Verde made its reputation elsewhere - with rum. For centuries on Santo Antao Island people have distilled "grog" from locally grown sugar cane and the whole economy of this tiny island depends on rum-making. But in Cape Verde, rum - also called 'Aguardente', the burning water - is not just any product, it is part of the culture. ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Afrique's Laeila Adjovi takes us to a place where all the roads lead to rum.
