Rest & Be Thankful Rum Jamaica 2015 (46%)

This new limited edition from Rest & Be Thankful is a blend of 10 barrels of Jamaican rum. Distilled in 2015 in Lluidas Vale (Jamaica), this rum is the result of a rapid fermentation (around 30 hours) in American oak vats, followed by distillation in a Forsyth type iron still. The distillate was then aged for 4 years on site in Jamaica in first fill bourbon casks before being moved to Scotland for a further 3 years. The result is a beautiful light molasses rum that is both delicate and complex with Jamaican markers.
This is the second small batch that delivered 3571 bottles.
