Rumclub Private Selection Ed. 34 2011

This Rumclub Private Selection edition comes from Spirit of Rum, a single cask Brazilian release built from a hybrid of sugar cane juice and molasses, distilled in 2011 and carrying a twelve year age statement. Bottled unsweetened at cask strength 54.5%, it leans into the most distinctive corner of Brazilian ageing.

The character is shaped by Amburana, the native Brazilian wood prized for its cinnamon, clove and sweet baking spice. Here it drives fragrant cinnamon and wood across the palate, with fruit and tobacco alongside and a dry, peppery, barrel-led finish. The strength is well integrated, letting the spice and structure carry without harshness. For curious drinkers ready for something genuinely different, it offers a dry, spice-forward profile unlike anything oak alone can give, capable neat or in a cocktail.
