Oksen Rhum

Oksen is Danish micro-distilled rum, made on a small scale by a local producer with the same craft curiosity that marks Denmark's craft wave. A robust name, a robust ambition.
  • Bottle of amber-coloured rum with whole cinnamon sticks visible inside
    Item no.: 22227865379-301

    Whole cinnamon sticks, not powder, are left to steep in the rum long enough that the aroma is almost detectable through the cork.

    Expert description

    Oksen Baton de Canelle Entier is a French Spiced Rum from Martinique, infused with whole cinnamon sticks and bottled at 40%.

    The Oksen family macerates whole cinnamon sticks sourced from Madagascan farming cooperatives, chosen both for quality and for environmental and social sustainability, directly in an agricole-based rum from Martinique. Because the cinnamon is added whole rather than as powder or extract, the flavour draws out more slowly and evenly into the rum, giving a cleaner, more authentic spice character.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Intense and almost entirely dominated by cinnamon, so powerful the rum comes across as almost spicy-sharp on the nose.

    Palate

    Christmas-pudding-like sweetness with raisins, cinnamon and orange, tying the flavour together in a warm, spiced whole.

    Finish

    Warm and spiced with cinnamon as a persistent undercurrent.

About Oksen Rom

Oksen distils its rum in Denmark in small batches, focused on craft and experimentation rather than large volume. That makes the rum an interesting find for anyone wanting to explore how Danish micro-distilling culture, otherwise best known from beer and whisky, can also embrace the rum category.

History & Background

Oksen is part of the growing group of Danish micro-distilleries and breweries that over the last decade have turned to new categories beyond the more established beer and whisky. By applying the same craft approach to rum, the producer has helped widen the Danish spirits landscape with another local voice.

Production & Style

The rum is distilled in small batches from molasses or cane products and aged in casks under Danish climate conditions, giving a different, more subdued maturation than tropical rum typically undergoes.

Signature Style
