Bapt & Clem's Rum

Bapt & Clem's is the small, independent rum series that favours single casks and rare origins over big, uniform blends. The name points to a personal, almost hands-on approach to selection, where every cask tells its own story instead of disappearing into a blend. This is rum for anyone looking for something beyond the familiar names.

Ten months in a 2000-litre armagnac cask from Gascony. An unusually long journey for a rum that began life in the Caribbean.
Expert description
Bapt & Clem's 8 Years Armagnac Cask Finish is a Rum from the Dominican Republic, matured 8 years in bourbon casks in the Caribbean and finished 10 months in armagnac casks in Gascony, bottled at 45%.
The rum spends its first years in bourbon casks in the Caribbean, after which it is sent to Gascony in southwestern France, where it is finished in massive 2000-litre casks that previously held armagnac for 30 years. The long French-Caribbean journey gives the rum a complexity spanning from classic rum notes to floral, honeyed nuances from the armagnac cask.

About Bapt & Clem's

Bapt & Clem's is a rum whose name and world reference two personal names behind the brand.

History & Background

Bapt & Clem's is an independent rum series whose name references two people behind the brand, an approach typical of the growing group of small, independent rum bottlers. Rather than owning distilleries themselves, brands like this buy single casks from established rum producers worldwide and bottle them under their own name, often in limited releases. The philosophy emphasises transparency about a cask's origin and a personal, hands-on selection process, in contrast to the large, uniform blends from established rum brands. Detailed information about the founding year and the people behind the brand is scarce in public sources.

Production & Style

The rum is distilled using a classic method and carried forward in an accessible, round style.

Signature Style

Round, Sweet, Light
The taste offers a round, lightly sweet character with a soft finish.
