The Teeda 1998 Okinawa Craft 21yo 48% 700ml is a premium rum from the distinguished Teeda label, meticulously crafted by the renowned Helios Distillery in Okinawa, Japan. Founded in 1961 as Taiyou Distillery, the company initially produced rum from locally grown sugarcane for the domestic market. It was rebranded in 1969 as Helios Distillery and expanded its product line to include sake and shochu. Recently, the distillery began exporting its products, earning international acclaim with the gold-medal-winning Teeda Aged 5 Years. The Teeda Aged 21 Years Japanese Rum is a testament to the distillery's expertise, having been aged for approximately two decades in American white oak casks. This rum exemplifies Helios Distillery's skill in creating refined and complex spirits, appealing to both casual drinkers and connoisseurs. Characterized by its harmony, complexity, power, and smoothness, this rum offers a delightful blend of sweet and fruity notes, including vanilla, raisins, tropical fruits, cinnamon, and a touch of maple syrup. Enjoy it neat or on the rocks for an unforgettable experience. The Matsuda family has been producing rum for nearly 60 years, with the 4th generation, Aska, continuing the tradition alongside his younger sister, Akane. The Teeda 1998 Okinawa Craft 21yo 48% 700ml stands as a prime example of the exceptional quality and craftsmanship passed down through generations.
