Unlike most traditional rums, which are made from molasses from refined sugar production, Mhoba rum is made from the pure juice of local sugarcane, Nkomazi variety, and contains no additives, coloring agents or artificial flavors. The entire production process takes place on the property, from growing the organic sugarcane to labeling the bottles.
Distillation is carried out by Robert Greaves in self-produced Pot Still at high reflux. Aging takes place in ex-wine red French oak barrels.
