CHARLES IV. BORDEAUX CASK EDITION

Limited edition of seven-year-old rum produced by GrRUM Distillery.

Distilled in 2019 from molasses originating from Cuba and Paraguay using the Column Still method. In 2021, the rum was transferred to French oak casks previously used for Bordeaux red wine to further develop its flavour and aromatic profile. The edition consists of two individual casks, bottled separately as two unique batches.

Description

This limited edition from CHARLES IV. represents a seven-year-old rum produced by GrRUM Distillery.

The rum is based on GrRUM Distillery's own distillate, produced to organic (BIO) standards from molasses originating from Cuba and Paraguay. It was distilled using the Column Still method in 2019 and transferred to French oak casks previously used for Bordeaux red wine in 2021 to further develop its distinctive character.

The French oak and the influence of the former Bordeaux wine casks have given the rum an elegant profile and a beautiful clear ruby-amber colour. The aroma and palate reveal notes of ripe red fruits, subtle vinous nuances, spices and the distinctive character of French oak.

The edition consists of two individual Bordeaux casks. Each cask is bottled separately, and the rums from the individual casks are never blended together. Each batch therefore retains the authentic character of its particular cask.

The rum is bottled at 61% ABV, without dilution, filtration or added sugar, preserving its natural character and authenticity.

CASK No. 2 of 2 – SINGLE CASK
Limited to 275 bottles.
