Kirk & Sweeney Gran Reserva...

Kirk & Sweeney Gran Reserva...

<br />HISTORY: August Sebastiani, a Tuscan-born winemaker and owner of the 3 Badge company, discovered numerous documents that testified to his family's involvement in<br />the construction of the fire station in Sonoma, California. His grandfather had worked as a volunteer and received 3 badges for his career. 3 badges has thus become a<br />symbol of returning to the roots, celebrating the passion for commitment and craftsmanship as the cardinal points of the company producing this product.<br /><br />PRODUCT: Kirk &amp; Sweeney is manufactured in Santiago de los Caballeros, Dominican Republic. The name pays homage to a wooden schooner known for smuggling rum<br />from the Caribbean to the Northeast during the early years of Prohibition. Distilled in the traditional way from sugar cane molasses, it is left to age in oak barrels to fully<br />develop its aromatic pro?le.<br /><br />PROFILE: Complex and intriguing, it touches on a wide range of aromas, from the intensity of vanilla to notes of sherry and grapes, underpinned by the fragrance of roasted<br />sugar cane. Years of ageing and careful blending add hints of dried fruits, nutmeg, cinnamon and spices with a touch of oak.<br /><br />Country: Dominican Republic<br />Alcohol content: 40%.<br />Format: 70cl<br />

Worthy Park 2007 70 cl /...

Worthy Park 2007 70 cl /...

Type: Pure Single Rum<br />Raw material: Molasses<br />Fermentation: Selected yeasts<br />Production method: Pot Still distillation<br />Ageing: Tropical<br />Box: Yes<br /><br />Why it's different<br /><br />Worthy Park 2007 is a bottling of the WPL brand, with congeners between 60 and 119 g / hLAP. Distilled in 2007 from molasses from the Worthy Park Estate's sugar cane<br />mill. It is a Pure Single Rum aged in the distillery's tropical climate warehouse and was bottled at 59% full cask grade, with an angel's share after 10 years of 64%. The label<br />shows the copper double retort still made by Scottish Forsyths for Worthy Park Distillery. No sugar, caramel or additives are added at bottling.<br />How to drink it<br /><br />Drink it straight, letting it breathe, possibly with water to have a slight dilution at will. It can be used in blending as a 'cut' to enrich any type of classic rum-based cocktail.<br />Focus<br /><br />Worthy Park 2007 Habitation Velier is the first bottling that bears the name of the Jamaican distillery on the label, different from the previous editions that were called<br />'Forsyths', inspired by the double retort copper still used for the production of all Worthy Park Estate rums. Worthy Park allocates part of its production to 'bulk' marketing,<br />rums which are then destined for blended rums or for selections of independent bottlers, provided that the name of the distillery is not put on their labels. The project carried<br />out in collaboration with Luca Gargano is not a simple independent bottling project. On the contrary, we could consider it 'dependent bottling', since the labels highlight the<br />fundamental points of production, such as the origin of the molasses, the type of still, the year of distillation and bottling, the percentage of angel's share, the mark,<br />specifying the level of esters and congeners as well as, of course, the fact that ageing takes place in a tropical climate at the distillery, information that is not usually<br />declared in independent bottling, since barrels are always purchased through rum merchants and never directly from the distillery. After the first editions, Worthy Park<br />allowed Luca to use the official name of the distillery, so from the 2007 release the name Worthy Park will always appear on the label.<br />

Hampden Estate OWH 8 Y.O....

Hampden Estate OWH 8 Y.O....

Type: Pure Single Rum<br />Raw material: Molasses<br />Fermentation: Indigenous yeasts<br />Production method: Pot Still distillation<br />Ageing: Tropical<br /><br />Why it's different<br /><br />From what could be considered the best distillery in the world, Hampden Estate 8 Years Old is made from the single mark 'OWH' bottled without any additives, no<br />colouring agents, but above all no added sugar, and aged 8 years in the distillery's wherehouse. All Hampden Estate rums are bottled with no added artifacts.<br /><br />How I drink it<br />Enjoy neat, on the rocks, in simple cocktails such as Hampden &amp; Pineapple or diluted with ginger beer. Excellent to wash down a baba, drizzled over a soft, well-vanillaised<br />sponge cake or dunked into dry biscuits such as canestrelli.<br /><br />Focus<br />Hampden Estate could be considered the best distillery in the world, located in the northwest of Jamaica, in Trelawny County. This claim is based on objective<br />considerations for the production process of this rum, 5 fundamental pillars:<br />1) the water used in all stages of production comes from a source a few kilometres from the distillery in the pristine area of Cockpit Country.<br />2) fermentation is spontaneous, using natural yeasts and ancestral techniques, to produce High Ester rums that are characterised by their aromatic richness.<br />3) distillation is 100% in Pot Still. Hampden Estate remains one of the very few distilleries in the world to use only discontinuous double retort copper pot stills - there are<br />currently four, one of which, legendary, was installed in 1960, produced by John Dore, with a capacity of 7600 litres and a marvellous swan neck reminiscent of a trunk,<br />which has earned it the name 'The Elephant' - the distillation cycle lasts about 7 hours with an alcoholic degree at the exit of the still of 82°.<br />4) Ageing takes place in a tropical climate in the Hampden Estate warehouse, where climatic conditions lead to very high angel share - in fact 7 years of ageing corresponds<br />to around 25 years in a continental climate.<br />5) No added sugar or caramel.<br /><br />The climatic factor is one of the fundamental elements of the Trelawny terroir. OWH is one of the many marks produced by the Hampden Estate. It is made up of the initials<br />of Outram Warmold Hussey, father of Lawrence Francis Close Hussey who took over the Hampden Estate with his family in 2009. Of the eight different expressions<br />produced for tasting rums, it is the one with the lowest level of esters. It is a rum that has a range of esters that fluctuates around 80/120 gr/hlap and belongs to the category<br />of Jamaican rums defined as 'Common Clean', those that, according to the Jamaican Spirits Pool, have a level of esters that can vary on average between 80 and 150<br />gr/hlap. Nevertheless, the level of aromatic richness of a quality Common Clean rum is far higher than that of any other modern rum distilled with multi-column distillation<br />equipment. That's the magic of Hampden Estate rum, a distillate that thanks to ancestral techniques has a recognisable and unique taste. OWH is one of the most recent<br />marks, born from the idea of creating a lighter rum than the historic marks that have been aged since that year.<br />

Rhum Rhum Blanc Marie...

Rhum Rhum Blanc<br />Rhum Rhum Marie Galante<br /><br />70 cl / 41 °<br />Typology: Pure Single Rhum Agricole<br />Raw material: Pure cane juice<br />Fermentation: Own selected yeasts<br />Method of production: Pot Still distillation<br />Box: Yes<br />Why it is different<br /><br />Rhum Rhum Blanc 41 ° is the Pure Single Agricole Rhum produced from an ancient variety of sugar cane, the Rouge B47.259, almost disappeared from the Antilles. Once<br />perfectly ripe, the canes are cut by hand with traditional 'coutelas' and transported to the distillery on 'cabrouets' pulled by bulls. The freshly pressed juice is not diluted, as<br />is usual in the production of rhum agricoles; fermentation takes place in open vats at a controlled temperature and lasts up to 5/6 days. After distillation there is a long<br />period of rest in steel vats, lasting up to a year, during which the alcohol content is slowly lowered. Rhum Rhum Blanc is bottled at 41°.<br /><br />How I drink it:<br />Rhum Rhum Blanc 41° is very pleasant in the classic Ti' Punch with a very small addition of sugar. Excellent for classic cocktails such as the Mary Pickford.<br /><br />Focus:<br />In the mid-2000s, Luca Gargano realised a dream he had nurtured for years, that of producing the best rum in the world. To do so, he enlisted the help of maestro Gianni<br />Vittorio Capovilla and together they chose the enchanting island of Marie Galante, where at the time the best possible terroir could be found in the Caribbean. A first still was<br />installed at the Bielle distillery in 2005 and the second in 2007: two Müller bain-marie stills with a capacity of 300 and 1200 litres. The fresh, undiluted cane juice ferments<br />slowly in stainless steel cuves.<br />

Rum Millonario 10 aniv....

ABV 50%<br />RON MILLONARIO 10 ANIVERSARIO CINCUENTA<br />CINCUENTA SHADES OF STRENGTH<br /><br />Ron Millonario 10 Aniversario Cincuenta is based upon the same recipe, maturation and blend of the 10 Aniversario Reserva, but it's bottled at higher strength to satisfy the<br />high demand from barmen all over the world for an easy and sweet rum that at the same time off ers a higher intensity of fl avour. An important ingredient to create cocktails<br />with character and boldness, but also more suited for sipping on the rocks without the ice diluting the strength and heat of the rum too much.The design of the bottle and<br />packaging is modern and elegant, with the same graphical style of Ron Millonario 10 Aniversario Reserva and the same innovative transparent glass cap to retain the family<br />feeling, but in gold rather than in black.<br /><br />TASTING NOTES: it echoes the sweet fruits, vanilla and chocolate of the standard 10 Aniversario Reserva, but much more intense and concentrated. It has a richer<br />mouthfeel, almost tactile, and a more robust caress on the tongue and palate. The higher strength accentuates the drier and winey fl avours from the sherry casks too. Th e<br />result is something in-between the easy freshness of the 10 Aniversario Reserva and the sweeter and darker complexity of the Solera 15.<br />
