THE RUM:
Privateer Rum Distillery is the pre-eminent champion of Queen’s Share rum where the richest cuts (the end of the hearts and the beginning of the tails) are collected from multiple runs and redistilled, then given extended aging to produce a rum of profound intensity and refined elegance … a rum fit for royalty! Our Queen’s Share was placed in our own Newport KY bourbon barrel within a week of its emptying, resulting in notes of fragrant peach, buttery toffee, and gentle leather.

PRODUCTION: Molasses in Pot Still, No Additives

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

Guardians (8 yr Trinidad Rum)
$45.00OUR TAKE: Guardians is the real sleeper in this lineup – Trinidad has produced some of the greatest rum in history (RIP, Caroni!) but also puts out a lot of so-so high volume juice so we didn’t enter the selection process assuming we’d come out with a “Trini”. And while the Foursquare and the Guyana were big, bold flashy candidates, this Trinidad kept popping up, refusing to be ignored (maybe because it’s over TWO THIRDS alcohol but drinks more like a 55 percenter). We succumbed to its fruity delights with absolutely zero regrets!
