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.
