Wagemut 01 PX-Cask Cask Strength Edition 2026 Barbados Rum 70 cl 58,7%

Wagemut means boldness in German, and boldness is exactly what it takes to send a 10 year old Barbados rum for its final three months into a fresh Pedro Ximenez sherry cask at full cask strength.

Expert Description

Wagemut 01 PX-Cask is a Spirit Drink with Barbados Rum, aged 10 years with a finishing period in Pedro Ximenez sherry casks, bottled at cask strength 58.7%.

The German house Wagemut builds its philosophy on authenticity and transparency throughout production. This release spends most of its maturation in American white oak barrels in Germany, before moving for its final three months into fresh PX sherry casks, adding extra depth and a sweet nuance. The rum is bottled with no added colour, in a limited cask strength edition.

The result is a powerful yet well-balanced rum, where the Barbados character meets the raisin and nutty sweetness of the sherry cask.
