This exquisite Jamaican rum, distilled in 2008 at the renowned Worthy Park Distillery, represents the epitome of traditional rum craftsmanship. The mash, composed of molasses, sugar cane juice, and crushed cane stalks, was fermented in large American oak fermenters before being distilled in a pot still made by the esteemed Forsyths of Scotland. This spirit was then aged for 14 years in a single ex-bourbon refill barrel, meticulously monitored to develop complex flavours and a robust character. Bottled by Thompson & Brothers in January 2023 at its natural cask strength of 54.5% ABV, this limited release produced only 314 bottles, each one a testament to the timeless allure of Jamaican rum.
