Rumbarrel 190 l - Martinique

!!!Sale and shipping only possible within Germany!!!New barrels made from European oak, lightly toasted and steamed like a white wine barrel before filling. All barrels are stored in Bad Dürkheim in our large warehouse and are filled with high-quality rum that we source from the Caribbean.Up to 20 litres incl. barrel rack.Flavor: tropical fruits and brown sugarThe Dominican Republic is renowned for its high-quality rum, which develops a unique flavor due to the use of special oak casks, often previously used for bourbon or whiskey, and the tropical aging conditions. Rum is made from sugarcane molasses, fermented, distilled, and aged in casks, where a portion of the rum evaporates (known as the “angel’s share”), making the remaining rum more concentrated. Rum is an important part of Dominican culture, enjoyed both neat and in cocktails.Barrel is supplied with wooden or silicone bung.Pre-used wooden barrels: Notches in the wood, external stress cracks or possibly an uneven bottom are not quality defects, but are rather determined by the nature of the construction and the previous use of the barrels. This does not affect the functionality of the barrel. We check the barrels very carefully for sensory and technical defects during the outgoing inspection. We accept no liability for cracks or fissures that occur during maturation. A possible and reasonable repair is not covered by the guarantee.Please note that the nominal size of wooden barrels does not always correspond to the net content, which may be higher or lower. Deviations do not constitute grounds for complaint.All pictures are examples and optical deviations are possible.

This 190-liter wooden barrel has had a fascinating journey. It was first used to mature US bourbon, which is known for its sweet, spicy aromas. After the bourbon was bottled, the barrel was sent to the Dominican Republic, where it was filled with molasses-based rum.By maturing in the former bourbon barrel, the rum absorbed the remaining vanilla and caramel notes of the bourbon, giving it additional depth and complexity. At the same time, the rum developed its own aromas of tropical fruit and brown sugar.The result is a harmonious rum that combines the best qualities of both worlds. This special storage demonstrates how thoughtful barrel storage can enrich the flavor profile of a distillate and is a must for lovers of high-quality spirits.Pre-used wooden barrels: Notches in the wood, external stress cracks or possibly an uneven base are not quality defects, but are rather determined by the nature of the construction and the previous use of the barrels.
