Filumena – Canada Sherry Cask Rum
$40.00Calgary’s Romero Distillery produces uniquely Canadian rum with Canadian molasses, glacier fed water and the extreme “Chinook” winds subjecting their casks to massive swings in pressure and temperature. This special bottling received extra-long aging in genuine Jerez sherry casks resulting in a succulently rich and silky rum with notes of dark fruit, burnt caramel and soft tannins.

Pelée’s Fury II Rum Finish – Martinique Grand Arôme Rum
$40.00This sequel to our original Grand Arôme Rum from Le Galion Distillery spent 10 mo. in a Barbados rum cask, adding additional dimensions of toffee and spice flavors to the base notes of wild tropical fruits, black olives, candied prunes and salted almonds. Grand Arôme’s long vinasse-powered fermentation creates prodigious amounts of ester flavor compounds that are NOT for the weak!

Burning Cane (15 yr Barbados Foursquare)
$49.99We jumped all over this cask instantly – currently there isn’t a hotter distillery in rum than Foursquare and its hype as “The Pappy Van Winkle of rum” is fully deserved: Powerful and multi-dimensional yet very approachable, even for rum newbies. Some single cask Foursquares trade for four figures … but our Burning Cane gets you cask strength world class juice at an impressive 15 years of aging for less than $50. At the time of this bottle’s release we compared this to Foursqaure’s vaunted Exceptional Cask Series – it would have ranked #1 for highest ABV and #3 for longest aging.
Cask strength Foursquare of this age can be a seductive gateway to fine rum, with fragrant summer fruit notes to grab cognac aficionados & the caramel intensity and oaky backbone to pull in whiskey fans. This cask’s luscious kettle corn opening evolves to a prolonged tree bark and gingerbread cookie finish.
