17 years in the making, from a column at the Travellers distillery in Belize to a single cask in Denmark – only 269 bottles came out of the journey.
Expert Description
RomDeLuxe Wild Series Rum #41 is a Belizean Single Cask Rum distilled on the Travellers distillery's column still and bottled at cask strength 65.4%.
The rum carries the mark MBT12 and was distilled from molasses in February 2006 on a column still at Travellers Ltd. The cask, an American ex-bourbon barrel, first matured in tropical Belize for 5 years, before being sent to Europe, where maturation continued for a further 12 years, bringing the rum to a total age of 17 years. From this single cask, number 5, only 269 numbered bottles were produced, bottled at cask strength and without filtration.
