Australian rum is a rarity on Danish shelves, and this bottle from the Beenleigh distillery is one of the more obscure styles RomDeLuxe has brought home.
Expert Description
RomDeLuxe Wild Series Rum #40 is an Australian Single Cask Rum distilled at Beenleigh Artisan Distillery and bottled at cask strength 67%.
The rum carries the mark MAIC10 and is made from molasses, distilled in August 2007. It first matured for 10 years in an American ex-bourbon cask, number 25, in Australia, before the cask was sent to Europe, where it matured for a further 5 years, bringing the rum to a total age of 15 years. From this single cask, only 259 numbered bottles were produced, bottled brut de fût, meaning straight from the cask without filtration or additives.
Tasting Notes
Nose
Dark molasses, tropical fruit and a hint of eucalyptus.
Palate
Powerful and oily with caramel, spice and an intense cask-strength warmth.
Finish
Very long, spiced finish with lingering warmth.
