Molasses
based, with the aid of “dunder” and a long fermentation, this
pot still rum is an example of the classic “Vale Royal” style.
First produced in the early 20th century to supply “rum
concentrate” for blending with local neutral spirits it is of the
Wedderburn type with an ester level of between 300/500 ppm.
Pale
in colour having been matured in well used oak Cognac casks it has a
high toned nose, leading to a concentrated and mouth filling pallet.
Fruit with only slight wood leads to a short but high powered
finish. A really interesting example of this type of rum.
Mix
long or in special cocktails.
