baseline by rum et al 49% (750ml)
$75.00
THE STORY: We’re huge fans of Dr. Robyn Smith and her Los Angeles microdistillery “rum et al” where she applies her knowledge and scientific rigor from her PhD. in chemical engineering to the art of rum production. Her rums are bold, powerful and explosively delicious and we’re delighted to distribute her creations across the US!
THE RUM (by Dr. Robyn Smith, PhD): this rum is named baseline because that’s exactly what i want it to act as, a baseline for all of our other rums to be compared to. it is a no-frills, straightforward rum with absolutely no additives (except for water to bring it down to bottling strength). it’s fermented from 100% baking grade molasses for 2.5-3 weeks using the distiller’s yeast strain of saccharomyces cerevisiae. it’s then double pot distilled to a spirit strength of 75% abv. these are extremely small batches.
don’t let the term baseline fool you, the rum is flavorful and delicious. that comes from the choice of quality raw ingredients, the long-duration fermentation, and the pot distillation.

Kyrië II – Netherlands Cane Juice Rum
$40.00KYRÏE II is from the same batch as the original Kyrïe, but with an additional 3 months of aging in a rum cask. Our original plan was for a longer aging but Kyrïe I was so popular & sold out so quickly we caved in and bottled the last of the Kyrïe that you’re holding in your hands! To be honest it’s not wildly different than the original Kyrïe, just a bit fuller and rounder in its mouthfeel. It’s still for fearless funky cane juice addicts only, Kyrië is searingly pungent with savory lemongrass notes & a graceful finish of confectioner’s sugar
