Enghaven Black Strap Batch 2 Small Batch Danish Rum 70 cl 42%

Enghaven Black Strap is the kind of rum that feels like opening the door to an old Danish distillery late in the afternoon — dark, warm and filled with the aromas of molasses, wood and honest craftsmanship. It’s a rum with both feet firmly planted in the classic black‑strap tradition, yet with a distinctly Danish soul.

On the nose, the heavy, dark notes come rolling in: burnt sugar, liquorice, molasses and a hint of toasted wood. It’s deep, dense and almost syrupy — like a dark caramel sauce that’s been left on the pan for just a moment longer.

The palate is round and full from the very first sip. You get layers of brown sugar, liquorice root and dark caramel, followed by a slight bitterness from the molasses that gives the rum backbone and character. In the middle sits a warm, spicy note that ties everything together and leads into a long, soft finish with dark nuances and a touch of coffee.

This is a rum for those who love depth and darkness in the glass — and who want to taste how Danish craftsmanship can take a classic rum style and give it its own expression.

There's something about the smell of tar, salt and old timber that sets the mind drifting. That's the air at the ferry landing in Mellerup, where Ragna crosses Randers Fjord day after day — and that's how Fjord Rum tastes.

Expert description

Fjord Rum 8 Year is a Danish Molasses Rum, distilled in 2018 and bottled eight years later in 2026 at Brænderiet Enghaven, at a strength of 48%.

The rum is the third bottle in the Fjord series, an exclusive trio created for Whisky.dk as a tribute to the small ferry Ragna and the route between Mellerup and Voer on the north side of Randers Fjord. Enghaven was founded in 2007 by Esben Moestrup, Erik Moestrup and Mikkel Nordkvist on the family farm, which the Moestrup family has run since 1881, and the range has since grown from fruit brandy to also include rum, gin, vodka and whisky. Fjord Rum is built on molasses and was given eight years to find its depth and warmth. 19 bottles were filled from this batch.

Finish

Did You Know?

Enghaven sits on a farm the Moestrup family has owned since 1881, yet the distillery itself was only founded in 2007 — starting with fruit brandy before adding rum, gin, vodka and whisky. Fjord Rum is therefore just as much a story about a farm in transformation as it is a story about the fjord outside.
