39,60

“Did you enjoy the Sample Eleven Blended Rum? Then you are going to love this extra matured special edition.
Whenever they bottle new stock, they always put some of the Rum they bought into a variety of casks to further mature the blend.
When they decide the time is right, they bottle the cask at a higher alcoholic strength to give you an even more powerfull version of Sample Eleven.

This “Fifth Release” was finished in a Cognac Cask for 15 months. The Caribbean meets France at a whopping 62,2%vol.
The sample eleven blend gets enhanced with some subtle sweet cognac influence who add’s a nice extra layer.
This bottling is a cooperation with the Belgian ” Salon Du Rhum” festival organized in SPA (Belgium) each year.

Description

Created by Jürgen Vromans (The Whisky/Rum Mercenary) & Erik Molenaar (Kintra Spirits)

What started as a wild idea developed into a project that almost took a whole year. With our experience in selection of single cask rums we bravely started this project to create our own rum filled with character. Great to drink neat or to use in a mix.

But blending proved to be a real challenge. Combinations that we knew would work on paper did not always work in real life. More than 20 experiments later we decided that we loved blend number 11. A blend with a combination of just the right amount of fruitiness, impressive flavours and a long finish. This was the one.

As you are used from us we are quite open about everything that we do, so here are the building blocks that we have used for our creation. Our basis was formed with rums from Panama, Guyana, Barbados and the Dominican Republic, all aged between 2 and 5 years. Then we added some unaged Jamaican pure pot still rum. Funky!

But we were not there yet. A small quantity of older rum can work miracles and add depth and complexity to the mix. So we added some Caroni 19 years old and Enmore 27 years old. If you have been following our single cask expressions, these likely will sound familiar to you.

The name of this expression simply refers to batch 11, the one selected from all the experiments. Nothing more, nothing less. Enjoy Sample Eleven Blended Rum! – Gentle but Bold
