Renegade Rum

Renegade Rum Distillery on the Caribbean island of Grenada breaks with rum world norms by making terroir, a philosophy otherwise at home in the wine world, the very core of its identity. It's one of the rum world's most innovative and visionary distilleries, pursuing the character of the land as diligently as any French vineyard. It's rum with a distinct sense of place in every drop.

  • Natural-coloured label rum bottle, Renegade Cane Rum Etudes Pearls
    Item no.: 2222785533215-1

    Renegade grows its own sugarcane on its fields in Grenada, and every bottle of Études is a study in what a single cane variety can do for a rum.

    Expert Description

    Renegade Cane Rum Etudes Pearls is a Grenadian Agricole-style Rum distilled on a pot still and bottled at 55%.

    The rum is distilled from fresh sugarcane juice of the Yellow Lady variety, grown on Renegade Rum Distillery's own fields in Grenada. After distillation, the rum matures in a combination of 50% first-fill American oak, 32% virgin American oak and 18% premium French oak, giving it a beautiful amber colour and increased aromatic depth. The Études series is Renegade's study of single-varietal sugarcane, with Pearls representing the Yellow Lady grape specifically.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Green and vegetal with sugarcane, olive and fermented tones, carried by toffee sweetness and spicy oak.

    Palate

    Coconut, oak and a distinct briny, salty character give a wild and intriguing expression, while the attack is sweet and spicy with dark cinnamon and a touch of cooked artichoke.

    Finish

    Spicy tones and a full-bodied texture linger, with notes of honey, vanilla and cardamom.

  • Renegade Single Farm Origin Pre Cask Column Still Dunfermline C1 rum bottle
    Item no.: 22227865479-1106-197280224

    Same farm, same sugar cane, but a completely different voice, column distillation tightens things up and lets the Dunfermline farm's character speak in a cleaner, more focused language than its pot still sibling.

    Expert Description

    Renegade Single Farm Origin Pre Cask Column Still Dunfermline C1 is a Grenada Rum, distilled from fresh sugar cane juice from the Dunfermline farm on column stills and bottled unaged at 50%.

    This is the column-distilled edition of Renegade's Dunfermline farm, the only truly inland farm the distillery works with, known for its Lacalome Red cane variety and its unusually powerful, grounded character. Where the pot still version delivers a thick and chewy profile, column distillation streamlines the distillate into a cleaner, more precise expression of the farm's terroir, without losing the mineral depth that defines the site.

    The result is a clear, focused unaged rum that shows a different facet of the same farm compared to its pot still sibling.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Clean and green sugar cane with a light mineral undertone and a hint of citrus.

    Palate

    Streamlined and clear with distinct cane sweetness, less thick than the pot still edition but equally intense.

    Finish

    Fresh and clean with a lingering mineral character from the inland farm.

  • Renegade Single Farm Origin Pre Cask New Bacolet Grenada Rum bottle
    Item no.: 22227865479-1106-197280222

    Where its sister release Old Bacolet sources its cane from the historic field of the same name, this bottle comes from the neighbouring New Bacolet, a different soil and a different flavour.

    Expert Description

    Renegade Single Farm Origin Pre Cask New Bacolet is a Grenada Rum, an unaged pot still rum distilled from fresh sugar cane juice from a single field, New Bacolet, bottled at 50%.

    As with the house's other Pre Cask releases, the aim is to show how each individual field on Renegade's terroir map leaves a distinct mark on the finished distillate. New Bacolet sits close to Old Bacolet, but the soil conditions and microclimate differ, giving the rum a fresher, more floral profile than its sister from the clay-rich flood plain.

    The result is a clean, delicate rum with notes of ripe stone fruit and a light salty undertone, more reminiscent of a quality white wine than a traditional rum.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Fresh and floral with apricot, peach and daisies, plus sweet, tart cherries.

    Palate

    Balanced between light salinity and a bitter, olive-like aromatic profile.

    Finish

    Medium length with cherries, a hint of vanilla and citrus fruit.

    Did You Know?

    New Bacolet and Old Bacolet lie side by side in Grenada, but Renegade's philosophy of terroir means that even neighbouring fields can produce markedly different rums, depending on soil, drainage and local microclimate.

  • Renegade Single Farm Origin Pre Cask Old Bacolet Grenada Rum bottle
    Item no.: 22227865479-1106-197280221

    Mark Reynier, the man behind Bruichladdich and Waterford, built a distillery in Grenada with the same philosophy he's known for in the whisky world: terroir is everything.

    Expert Description

    Renegade Single Farm Origin Pre Cask Old Bacolet is a Grenada Rum, an unaged pot still rum distilled from fresh sugar cane juice from a single farm, Old Bacolet, harvested in 2020 and bottled at 50%.

    Renegade Rum Distillery was founded by Mark Reynier, former owner of Bruichladdich and founder of Waterford Distillery, who brought his whisky philosophy of terroir to Grenada. The "Pre Cask" releases show the rum as it is straight from the still, without cask influence, to highlight how a single farm's soil, climate and location shape the flavour. Old Bacolet sits between two rivers on a clay-rich flood plain, a location that Renegade says has a huge influence on the finished distillate.

    The result is a fresh, vegetal rum that shows the pure character of the sugar cane without wood's interference.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Fresh sugar cane, sweet and vegetal, with powerful herbs, liquorice and a hint of charred grass.

    Palate

    Light and crisp with pear and summer fruit, a touch of limey citrus and a hint of pepper.

    Finish

    Fresh with rubbery tones, minty herbs and warming cloves.

  • Renegade Single Farm Origin Pre Cask Pearls Grenada Rum bottle
    Item no.: 22227865479-1106-197280220

    From a field called "Grapefruit" on the Flats terroir comes this release, where the elegant Yellow Lady cane variety gives the rum an almost oily fullness.

    Expert Description

    Renegade Single Farm Origin Pre Cask Pearls is a Grenada Rum, an unaged pot still rum distilled from fresh sugar cane juice of the Yellow Lady variety from a single field in the Pearls area, bottled at 50%.

    Like the other Pre Cask releases from Renegade Rum Distillery, this bottle shows the rum straight from the still without cask influence, letting the field's pure character shine through. The cane was harvested from the field locally known as "Grapefruit", located on the Flats terroir, one of the areas Renegade tracks most closely in its work mapping how soil and location shape flavour. Only 1,632 bottles of this limited release were produced.

    The result is a clear, oily and full-bodied rum with a distinct olive and pepper character reminiscent of a well-made agricole from Martinique.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Fresh sugar cane, olive and citrus, with a pronounced vegetal freshness.

    Palate

    Cane-forward and fresh with vegetal tones and grass, closed by a distinct bitterness.

    Finish

    Complex with olive-like undertones and a spicy peppery kick.

  • Renegade Single Farm Origin Pre Cask Pot Still Dunfermline P1 rum bottle
    Item no.: 22227865479-1106-197280223

    Mark Reynier, the man behind the Waterford distillery in Ireland, moved his terroir obsession to Grenada and now lets the cane from a single mountain farm speak entirely for itself, with no cask ageing at all.

    Expert Description

    Renegade Single Farm Origin Pre Cask Pot Still Dunfermline P1 is a Grenada Rum, distilled from fresh sugar cane juice from the Dunfermline farm and bottled unaged at 50%.

    Renegade Rum Distillery was founded in 2015 by Mark Reynier, who previously led the acclaimed Waterford distillery in Ireland and made terroir a central concept in whisky. On Grenada, he applies the same philosophy to rum, where the Pre Cask series, launched in winter 2021, highlights unaged rum from single farms to show the cane's pure character without cask influence. Dunfermline is the only truly inland farm the distillery works with, situated on the slopes of the St Andrews mountains in northeastern Grenada, and differs from the more coastal fields by delivering big, bold flavours.

    The result is a chewy and remarkably complex unaged rum that shows the cane's raw power without filter.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Fresh and green sugar cane with earthy, mineral tones from the inland farm.

    Palate

    Chewy and complex with intense cane sweetness and a distinct, grounded character.

    Finish

    Fresh and lingering with raw cane power that lives on long after each sip.

About Renegade Rum

Renegade Rum Distillery is located on the Caribbean island of Grenada and is one of the rum world's most innovative and visionary distilleries. The distillery is driven by the terroir philosophy, common in the wine world but rarely applied in the world of rum, giving Renegade's rum a distinct, field-specific character. For newcomers it's an exciting, new way to understand rum, while the experienced rum enthusiast will appreciate the scientific approach to documenting how soil and climate shape the finished flavor.

History & Background

Renegade Rum Distillery was established on Grenada with a clear ambition to bring wine's terroir thinking into rum production, a concept that has historically played a very small role in the Caribbean rum industry. By growing and distilling sugarcane from specific fields, each with its own soil and microclimate, the distillery stands markedly apart from traditional rum production, where sugarcane is often blended from multiple sources. The project has been highlighted in international spirits media as one of the most ambitious attempts to bring scientific precision into the world of rum.

Production & Style

Renegade distills sugarcane from specific fields and distilleries, and highlights the origin on the label, in the same way a vineyard would be featured on a wine bottle.

Signature Style

Terroir-Driven, Authentic, Versatile
The flavor varies considerably by origin, but a distinct, terroir-driven identity runs throughout.
