While most expressions from Rum Sixty Six are crafted at the renowned Foursquare distillery in Barbados, the Rum Sixty Six Fine English White 2yo 38% 700ml takes a different path. This intriguing rum was distilled in the Caribbean and matured for two years before being transported to the Sovereign Distillery in Liverpool, UK. Here, it underwent a unique process of redistillation and resting in copper vats. The result is a sweet and spicy rum with notes of lime zest, caramel, black pepper, and creamy cashew nuts. This expression showcases a blend of citrus and tropical fruits on the nose, followed by a palate rich in fruity flavors, black pepper, chestnut, and hints of pineapple and coconut. The finish is lingering, with dried figs, a touch of bitterness, and a hint of soap. Despite some criticism regarding its depth, this rum offers a unique and smooth taste experience, making it a notable addition to the Rum Sixty Six lineup. Owned by The Bajan Trading Company, Rum Sixty Six pays homage to Barbados' independence in 1966, featuring the motto 'Pride and Industry' on its coat of arms. The brand's Family Reserve is a limited edition, reserved for family members and dating back to the 1960s. However, the Fine English White Rum stands out with its Caribbean roots and English refinement, presenting an 'outstandingly smooth white rum' that piques the curiosity of rum enthusiasts.
This rum is unique due to its dual influence. It is distilled and initially matured in the Caribbean, then redistilled and rested in copper vats in Liverpool, UK, offering a blend of tropical and refined English characteristics.
The rum features citrus and tropical fruit aromas, a fruity and spicy palate with notes of black pepper, chestnut, lime, caramel, pineapple, and coconut, and a lingering finish with dried figs and a touch of bitterness.
Rum Sixty Six is owned by The Bajan Trading Company, which honors Barbados' independence with its branding and heritage.
As a rum enthusiast and reviewer, I find the Rum Sixty Six Fine English White 2yo 38% 700ml to be an interesting and smooth rum. Its combination of tropical and refined English characteristics creates a unique flavor profile. While it may lack the depth of some other rums, its sweet and spicy notes, coupled with a lingering finish, make it a notable addition to anyone's rum collection. Overall, it's an enjoyable experience that is worth trying for its distinctive dual influence and intriguing complexity.
