The Duppy Share Legacy Edition XO Spiced Rum 70 cl 40%

Ten years on the market are not celebrated with an ordinary bottle – Legacy Edition is The Duppy Share's way of marking the milestone with a rum that runs deeper than their usual style.

Expert Description

The Duppy Share Legacy Edition XO is a Caribbean Spiced Rum composed of rum from Jamaica and Barbados, matured up to 10 years in ex-bourbon casks and bottled at 40%.

Legacy Edition marks The Duppy Share's first 10 years as a brand and is created as an ultra-premium edition of the company's spiced rum. The blend builds on rum from Jamaica and Barbados, infused with a carefully selected mix of spices that gives the bottle a depth and sophistication the company hasn't previously achieved in its standard releases. Only a limited number of bottles exist, and once they're gone, this edition won't return.
