This 19-year-old rum from an unnamed distillery in Fiji was distilled in 2004 and filled into American oak, maturing at origin before being shipped to in Europe in 2016 to be filled into American oak (ex-rum) casks.
The label is designed by Toronto-based artist Elise Conlin, whose early work while studying at the Ontario College of Art & Design caught our eye. We are excited that she agreed to lend her talents to a series of labels, aptly named “Shady Grove”, for our first releases.
This single barrel rum is non-chill filtered with no additives, yielding 223 bottles at a cask strength of 57.6% ABV.

BP Caroni 1998 Trinidad 25 yr
$450.00Founded in the early 1900s near Port of Spain, Caroni was one of Trinidad’s most storied rum distilleries, benefitting from a number of different factors including housing both column and pot stills which meant a wider variety of rums could be produced. The sugar cane industry and the number of distilleries on the island dwindled towards the end of the 20th century and, eventually, Caroni shut its doors in the early 2000s. This 25-year-old Caroni was distilled in 1998.

The double Oloroso maturation makes for a majestic dram of dark fruit, leather, bitter almonds and citrus-infused honey.

Kinnaree 9 yr Thailand Rum
$40.00We’re excited to be one of the very first IBs to release a rum from Thailand. While most of their domestic releases are heavily sweetened, we were so thrilled that their unadulterated distillate is wonderful stuff (at a reasonable price!) that we bought two casks. We’ve always wanted a quality “gateway” rum that was instantly accessible to rum newbies but still had the complexity and stamina to impress jaded rum aficionados. We were thrilled to find this rum in Thailand, a new country for most rum drinkers.
Why is this the “female” cask? She opens beautifully with lush, resonant floral notes while its sibling “male” cask has a strong lingering oaky finish.

Whistler 14 yr Venezuela Rum
$45.00We think of this as the “Everything Bagel” of rums. It’s a sumptuous smorgasbord that checks a wild variety of flavors: Sea salt caramel, bitter mocha, baking spices, toasted oak, a little citrus zing, a touch of funky petrol.
