Old St. Croix Danish Navy The Frigate Jylland Spirit Drink 70 cl 45%

Old St. Croix Danish Navy The Frigate Jylland is a characterful spirit drink with historical depth, bottled at 45% and inspired by Danish maritime tradition. It pays tribute to the frigate Jylland and the naval legacy of pharmacist A.H. Riise.

This spirit is part of Old St. Croix’s Royal Danish Navy Collection and is composed of rum-like components from the Caribbean and Central America. It is aged in both young and old oak casks and bottled without chill filtration. The name and character of the blend honour the frigate Jylland – the world’s longest wooden warship and a Danish national treasure, which sailed to the Danish West Indies five times between 1871 and 1887. According to legend, the crew received daily rations from Riise himself.
