The year 1863 marks the start of the Austro-Hungarian Empire's naval history, and this rum uses it as the starting point for a blend of selected Caribbean distillates.
Expert Description
Austrian Empire Navy Reserva 1863 is a Rum-based Spirit Drink matured in oak casks, bottled at 40%.
The rum is a blend of selected Caribbean rums, carefully matured in oak casks to achieve depth and complexity. The name and the year 1863 reference the Austro-Hungarian Empire's naval history, and the bottle is designed with this maritime heritage as its theme. The dark mahogany colour and the intense, complex aroma reflect the careful cask maturation behind the blend.

Soft and full-bodied with honey, caramel, roasted nuts and a hint of oak, where the initial toffee impressions are followed by darker fruit echoes such as raisin and stewed fig.
Finish
Long-lasting, slightly spicy with sweet and smoky tones.
