Distiller Notes
This blend of aged Demerara rums is bottled at 86 proof to bring the full flavor to tiki and other cocktails that call for Demerara rum. Rich flavors of dark, stone fruit, smoky wood, burnt cane, treacle and brown spice. Despite being much lower proof than the Hamilton Rum at 151 proof, this is bottled from the same bulk rum blend.
Proof: 86
From pirate life on the open sea to Caribbean island paradises, perhaps no other spirit evokes such a romantic history as Rum. Made through fermentation and distillation of molasses or the fresh-pressed juice of sugar cane, Rums range from 20% to over 70% alcohol and come in a variety of tones from clear to dark. Highest quality Rums are generally produced in pot stills and aged in wood, while less expensive Clear or “White” Rums are produced in column stills and bottled without barrel aging. Naturally, Rums form the base of tropical cocktails like Daquiris and Mojitos.
