  Ron Cristobal Black Cask Caribbean Rum 70 cl 40%

  Item no.: 2222786542-5587

  There are light, bright rums, and there are rums built to fill a glass with darkness and caramel. Ron Cristobal Black Cask belongs to the latter category, a rum that isn't afraid to taste of its cask.

  Expert Description

  Ron Cristobal Black Cask Caribbean is a Dominican Rum aged in heavily charred oak casks and bottled at 40%.

  The rum comes from the same distillery as the rest of the Ron Cristobal range, Alcoholes Finos Dominicanos in the Dominican Republic, where the house grows its own sugar cane to secure a pure, local raw material. Black Cask uses heavily charred casks, which pull darker, more caramelised notes forward than the house's lighter expressions such as Nina and Pinta.

  The name Black Cask refers directly to the heavy charring of the oak, which gives the rum its deep colour and a robust, lightly smoky backbone beneath the otherwise sweet profile.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Dark caramel and burnt sugar meet vanilla and a hint of smoky oak.

  Palate

  Full-bodied with brown sugar, dark chocolate and a warm, lightly spiced finish from the charred casks.

  Finish

  Medium length and robust, where the caramel lingers alongside a final hint of smoke.

  Item no.: 2222786542225-77

  The Santa Maria series is Ron Cristobal's experimental side, where each edition is its own vintage project. This one starts at the source: pure bourbon cask, no extra finish.

  Expert description

  Ron Cristobal Santa Maria 2009 Vintage is a Rum from the Dominican Republic, distilled in 2009 and matured in bourbon casks, bottled at 46%.

  The rum forms the cornerstone of the Santa Maria series, where a single 2009 distillate is matured exclusively in bourbon casks with no further cask finish. The series is known for using this 2009 distillate as the base for numerous finished variants, but this edition represents the rum in its purest, most unfiltered form. Only 2063 bottles were released.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Sweet and pleasant with marzipan and almond, with a hint of citrus and coconut.

  Full-bodied with ripe apricots and vanilla fudge.

  Ron Cristobal Santa Maria Calvados Finish Dominican Republic Rum 70 cl 42%

  Item no.: 2222786542225-791

  Apple orchards in Normandy meet sugar cane from the Dominican Republic. The Santa Maria series is where Ron Cristobal dares to experiment, and this Calvados cask gives the rum a streak of fresh fruit rarely found elsewhere in the range.

  Expert Description

  Ron Cristobal Santa Maria Calvados Finish is a Dominican Rum finished in French Calvados casks and bottled at 42%.

  The bottle belongs to the Santa Maria series, Ron Cristobal's prestige line, where each release gets an extra maturation in a chosen cask after the base ageing in the Dominican Republic. The base spirit was distilled in 2010 at Alcoholes Finos Dominicanos and rested in oak casks before being transferred to Calvados casks that previously held apple brandy from Normandy. Bottling took place in June 2024 with a total outturn of 2,192 bottles, making this a limited release.

  The Calvados cask pulls a different character forward than the classic sherry and port finishes the series is known for. The apple acidity from the cask lays a fresh layer over the rum's natural sweetness, while the cask's former brandy content adds a touch of warmth without weighing the rum down.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Green apples and a light acidity meet caramel and soft vanilla, with a hint of freshly baked apple pie in the background.

  Palate

  Full and round with ripe apples, brown sugar and a lightly spiced warmth from the cask that ties the rum's sweetness together with its Calvados heritage.

  Finish

  Long and dry, where the apple notes fade out alongside a hint of oak and a touch of pepper.

  Ron Cristobal Santa Maria Moscatel Finish Dominican Republic Rum 70 cl 43%

  Ron Cristobal Santa Maria Red Wine Cask Finish Dominican Republic Rum 70 cl 42%

  Item no.: 2222786542225-792

  Red grapes from European vineyards get to leave their mark on a Dominican Rum. In the Santa Maria series it's the rule rather than the exception that the unexpected cask makes the best story, and this red wine cask is nothing short of a colourful finale.

  Expert Description

  Ron Cristobal Santa Maria Red Wine Cask Finish is a Dominican Rum finished in red wine casks and bottled at 42%.

  Like the rest of the Santa Maria series, the base rum is distilled at Alcoholes Finos Dominicanos and aged in traditional oak casks before being transferred to casks that previously held red wine from European vineyards. The casks impart tannins and colour compounds from the grapes not otherwise found in a standard Dominican Rum, and the result sits somewhere between rum and a lightly wine-like dessert spirit.

  The red wine cask pulls fruit and tannin forward without masking the rum's underlying character of brown sugar and tropical fruit. It's a finish well suited to closing out a meal or standing alone as an afternoon dram.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Ripe red grapes and orange peel, spiced with a hint of cloves and a touch of char from the cask.

  Palate

  Wine-like and fruity with notes of orange and brown sugar, where the red wine's tannins provide a dry, taut structure.

  Finish

  Medium length with white pepper and a final hint of dark berries fading out alongside the oak.

  Ron Cristobal Santa Maria Ruby Port Finish Dominican Republic Rum 70 cl 42%

  Item no.: 2222786542225-789

  Among the Santa Maria series' many finish variants, the port wine edition is the one that leans closest to classic dessert wine sweetness.

  Expert description

  Ron Cristobal Santa Maria Ruby Port Finish is a Rum from the Dominican Republic, distilled in 2009 and finished in ex-Ruby Port wine casks, bottled at 42%.

  The rum starts from the same 2009 distillate that forms the base of the entire Santa Maria series, but after the initial bourbon cask maturation it is moved into casks that previously held Ruby Port wine. The port's deep, berry-driven sweetness melts together with the rum's natural character, creating one of the most dessert-like editions in the Santa Maria series.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  Caramel, chocolate, wood and vanilla, with a clear port wine character and spice.

  Palate

  Port wine, caramel, vanilla and spice, with a hint of black pepper.
