Illegal Tender Rum Co - Distillers Cut
Since the 16th of April 2015 our Master Distiller has meticulously tended to the barrel, aging at Illegal Tender Rum Co, from moving barrels into the sunshine to get some Dongara Sunshine onto them to then keeping them cool in summer out of the intense heat we have in Dongara.
Each bottle of Distillers Cut has the mark of quality on them, from the Rums initial distillation to the bottle you are purchasing, you can be assured this Rum will be one to be savoured.
Tasting Notes:
A sophisticated spirit that entertains your palate, with distinct cane flavours ranging from brown sugar to a buttery crème Brule. A light bite on the back of the throat indicates the shiraz cask used for ageing, which pronounces that you are in fact drinking a barrel aged Rum.
A very pleasing after taste, light burn that has dissipated to a warmth in the back palate and warmth filling your body.
