Originating from Jamaica, this incredibly rare rum was distilled on the 22nd of June 1939. For almost 200 years, United Rum has been at the forefront of rum distillation, blending, and marketing. This exquisite rum was stored in three oak puncheons for five decades before being bottled and named after one of the greatest names in the history of rum, Alfred Lamb. A limited edition of just 918 bottles, Alfred Lamb's Special Reserve was distilled in Jamaica and aged in a puncheon, a larger cask than the standard hogshead, before being bottled in Dumbarton, Scotland, around the late 1980s or early 1990s.
This low ABV release, bottled at 40%, presents with light flavors that include lightly overripe fruits and roasted wood, with intriguing notes of caramel and grass. Though the empty glass dies off relatively quickly, the fresh, fruity, and slightly earthy profile ensures a unique tasting experience.
Only 918 bottles of Lamb's 1939 Special Consignment were produced, making it an incredibly rare find.
