Produced using the same unique and secret methods since the 18th century. The result is a spirit with an unmistakable aromatic profile thanks to very high levels of esters. Heaven in a bottle.

Transcontinental Rum Line Jamaica 2016 5 Year Old Rum

This first spends four years maturing under the Jamaican sun in American oak barrels, soaking up the island's unique character. Then, for a final year of refinement, it embarks on a trip to Europe. The aroma is a captivating blend of dried fruit, hinting at raisins and prunes, balanced with the warmth of black pepper, tobacco, and oak spice. A subtle smokiness adds intrigue, while notes of chocolate and cinnamon complete the inviting bouquet. The palate is a symphony of flavours, with vanilla sweetness intertwining with the grassy character of sugar cane. Zesty orange bursts through, followed by the rich comfort of caramel and cream. Hints of baking spices linger on the long finish, a testament to the rum's unique journey.
