dunderclap still strength by rum et al 74% ABV (375 ml)
$60.00
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!
From Dr. Robyn Smith, PhD: dunderclap at still strength (74/75%) has similar notes to 49% dunderclap, but the flavors and aromas are much more concentrated. on the nose there’s a variety of fruits, like dried apples, fruit leather, fig jam, raisins, and prunes. there are notes of vanilla and caramel alongside smarties and a touch of musk. on the palate, the sip is very oily and has very little heat. the first flavors i get are grape jelly and fig jam. there’s some earthiness that reminds me of wet branches. there are notes of candied grapefruit and honey roasted macadamia nuts.

Kinnara 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 “male” cask? He has a strong lingering oaky finish while his sibling “female cask” opens beautifully with lush, resonant floral notes.
