The Mhoba Pot Stilled High Ester Rum is a unique, limited release rum with a remarkable 74% ABV, crafted by the renowned Mhoba distillery in South Africa. This rare gem is derived from pure sugarcane juice, with only 78 bottles produced, making it a highly sought-after collector's item. The rum's aromatic nose reveals a delightful medley of melon, fruit schnapps, soap, basil, and a hint of sugarcane. Its complex flavor profile combines notes of plum, ester, sourness, and a pronounced sugarcane essence, creating a distinctive tasting experience. Nestled near the famous Kruger National Park, Mhoba distillery specializes in producing ten different types of Pure Single Sugarcane Rums on a commercial scale. Mhoba rums are not blended with other distillates; they are made using only time, attention, dedication, water, and fermented and distilled sugarcane juice. These rums are classified as Agricole Rums, as they are crafted entirely from sugarcane juice instead of molasses. The High Ester Rum stands out due to its rich ester content and extended fermentation period, which includes the addition of "dunder" – distillation residues from the pot still that enhance the rum's unique flavor. The fresh distillate starts with a lower alcohol content and is only slightly diluted with water, resulting in an impressive final product with a 74% ABV. This white rum, made from pure sugarcane juice, is extremely flavorful and reminiscent of Jamaican rums. Its exceptional character results from a 22-day fermentation period, the addition of sugarcane juice to the dunder (30%), and a low alcohol content during distillation. These factors contribute to a high concentration of volatile compounds (congeners) and esters. In summary, the Mhoba Pot Stilled High Ester Rum is a limited release, pure sugarcane juice rum with a high ester content, created through a meticulous fermentation process and the addition of dunder. This rum is a must-try for experienced rum enthusiasts seeking an extraordinary and unique product from the Mhoba distillery.
