A UNIQUE DISCOVERY
This is the first cask that House of Rum ever bottled, so for us this is our most valuable and important cask. So much so that it deserved a special gift box with its own unique decanter and two hand-made 24% lead, Cumbria Crystal Glasses.
Cask number 43, Rotation 17/V376 only shared with us 140 bottles so this truly is a rare and unique offering. The Rum is incredibly smooth with woody notes and a sweet chocolatey finish.
Its maturation journey is long and varied. First distilled in Venezuela in 2005 at the CADC distillery, the Rum was placed into French Oak casks which had previously held Brandy and it remained in Venezuela tropically ageing for eight years before travelling north to the island of the Dominican Republic for a further four years of maturation under the warm Caribbean sun.
In 2017 it was shipped across the Atlantic where it remained in an ex-Brandy cask continentally ageing in the much cooler European climate for a further five years before being bottled by House of Rum in 2021.
