Produced from the highest quality sugar cane grown in Jamaica, at the
heart of the Caribbean, this pot still rum has enjoyed a unique maturation
journey, having been fully matured at The GlenAllachie Distillery. The
spirit was sourced from Southern Jamaica’s Clarendon Distillery, which
lies on one of the oldest sugar cane plantations on the island and is one
of only four producers in the country. Renowned for crafting some of the
most flavourful and intense rums in the world, Jamaica has been a hub of
rum production since the 17th century.
For this release, our Master Blender Billy Walker sourced high, low and
medium ester spirit. Initially filled to a mixture of American and French
oak at 86% ABV, the rum was left to mature for 30 months at each ester
level. The spirit was then reduced to 69% ABV and re-filled to a similar
cohort of oak casks to complete its maturation journey. Using his half-
century of experience, Billy then expertly blended the rum to craft a
complex and rich, yet delightfully fruity expression.
The double maturation experience, at relatively cool temperatures,
allows the rum to be presented to the oak casks at two different ‘solution
characteristics’ and deliver a rich and velvet spectrum of flavours.
