The Privateer New England Reserve is a molasses-based rum meticulously crafted in Ipswich, Massachusetts, USA. The rum is a masterful blend of spirits aged between 2 to 6 years, reflecting the dedicated efforts of the artisans at Privateer. This exquisite rum offers profound flavors, rich concentration, and an accessible yet intricate complexity. Celebrating the art of blended rums, it stands out for its purity—no post-distillation sweeteners, no additives, no artificial coloring or flavor agents are used. It is simply a harmonious blend of spirit, water, oak, and time. The molasses, sourced from Guatemala, undergoes fermentation with specially selected yeasts, ensuring unique character and depth. The initial distillation occurs in a pot still, followed by a second distillation in a column still, which helps achieve the desired profile. The aging process is equally nuanced, with the rum maturing in an array of casks, including new American oak barrels, and ex-brandy, ex-bourbon, and ex-rum barrels. Before the casking stage, the rum is reduced to 55% ABV and further diluted to 45% ABV when the barrels are blended. The cellar master's precise and intricate work enhances the complexity of this rum. Privateer's philosophy is anchored in utilizing simple, high-quality ingredients and maintaining transparency throughout the production process.
