The company BERTOLANO’S was established in the year 1999 by my father June T. Bertolano in the mountainous area of Antique located at Brgy. Lagdo Sibalom Antique. Brgy Lagdo is approximately 200 hectares to 300 hectares and it can produce tons of sugar during milling season.
BERTOLANO’S is one of the few muscovado sugar producers left in the Province of Antique. Muscovado sugar is an English corruption of the Spanish azúcar mascabado or the Portuguese açúcar mascavado, meaning sugar of the lowest quality or lowest value. The name and meaning is tied to the state of sugar production and markets of the late 18th to earliest 19th century, where sugar that had been less refined was considered an inferior product by the industry and thus, muscovado meant literally a low quality sugar that was poorly drained of its molasses. Molasses is the by-product of the refining of sugarcane. The molasses in brown sugar contains a number of minerals, which include calcium, potassium, magnesium and iron.
Muscovado sugar is the flagship product of the Province of Antique known of its unique aroma and is nutritionally richer than other brown sugars or refined sugar, and retains most of the natural minerals inherent in sugarcane juice. The production of muscovado sugar in the Philippines had experienced a long period of decline when large mills took over sugar production from small farmers with small mills until consumer interest in healthy and organic foods revived interest in muscovado sugar, creating a new market for muscovado sugar production from small mills like us.
What is MUSCOVADO Sugar?
All Wholesome! BERTOLANO’S sugar are unrefined. The absolute minimum physical processing is done to lock-in the natural sugar cane molasses in the final product. The cane juice is simply squeezed, heated and crystallized. None of the further chemical processes to produce refined white and brown sugars are used including the use of chemical flocculents, animal bone char and bleaches.
Muscovado Sugar is a fine, soft, crystallized sticky sugar that retains between 8% and 10% of the natural molasses following crystallization. It is the real traditional unrefined soft brown sugar that retains the genuine molasses from the sugar cane. Refined brown sugars are made by coloring or ‘painting’ white refined sugar with syrups and/or refined molasses. Try Muscovado against a refined brown sugar and really ‘Taste the Difference’.
Muscovado originated from the Portuguese language and is believed to describe the seepage of the molasses through the crystal sugar in a ‘bin’. This would leave a Light Muscovado Sugar at the top, a Dark Muscovado in the middle and the strongest Molasses Sugar at the bottom.
What is the shelf life of muscovado sugar?
Muscovado battles well with high temperature and has a reasonably good shelf life. The shelf life should be from 12 months if stored at a temperature of 30 degrees centigrade and 12-48 months on 20 degrees centigrade.
Why is it healthy sugar?
Muscovado sugar is healthy because it is processed the natural way – completely free from any harmful chemicals such as phosphoric acid, formic acid, sulfur dioxide, preservatives, or any flocculants, surfactants, bleaching agents or viscosity modifiers. It is produced simply by boiling the sugarcane juice to eliminate its water content. It is nutritionally rich and retains all natural minerals and vitamins present or inherent in sugarcane juice.
Muscovado sugar contain 15 calories per 4 grams (1 tsp). The nutritive values of muscovado sugar can be compared with that of honey.
