Tanduay Overproof Rum Philippine Rum 70 cl 50.5%

Crowned overall "Taste Master" at The Spirits Business Asian Spirits Masters 2024, this powerful 101-proof rum proves that high strength doesn't have to come at the expense of finesse.

Expert Description

Tanduay Overproof is a Philippine Rum, a blend of column and pot still distillates aged a minimum of 3 years in once-used American oak barrels, bottled at 50.5%.

The rum is produced by Tanduay Distillers by combining column-distilled and pot still-distilled rums, which are then aged for at least three years in previously used American oak barrels. The high strength of 50.5%, equivalent to 101 proof, gives the rum extra intensity without compromising the smoothness the brand is known for. Overproof won the "Master Medal" and the overall "Taste Master" title at The Spirits Business Asian Spirits Masters 2024, the competition's highest accolade.

The result is a powerful, full-bodied rum, where toasted pineapple and banana meet sweet vanilla.
