Bayou XO Mardi Gras Rum 0.7L 40% The spirit of Louisiana Anyone who has ever been to Louisiana knows it: the early morning fog that often lies over the state in the Gulf of Mexico. The many swamps and rivers mean there is a very humid, subtropical climate, which leads to an average humidity of up to 70% and this morning phenomenon. They wanted to capture this spirit and created the 'Bayou XO Mardi Gras Rum'. It matures for up to 6 years in bourbon barrels using the Solera method and is finished in sherry barrels.

This has clear smoky notes and the aroma of dark fruits such as plums and blackcurrants, as well as the sweetness of tupelo honey.

Since the beginning of the 20th century, around 100 beekeepers have dedicated themselves to producing single-variety tupelo honey with the help of the western honey bee. Tupelo honey is known for its special aroma. With almost twice the fructose content of glucose, it is significantly sweeter than honey we know in our latitudes. The color also stands out from the honey we are familiar with; in tupelo honey it is light gold with a greenish shimmer. The taste is described as very heavy, spicy aroma.

Bayou Special Release Single Barrel Rum 0.7L 40% Bayou Distillery In 2011, three boys from Louisiana who have been friends since childhood had a special idea. They wanted to breathe new life into the drink that was once produced around the waters of Bayou and had fallen into oblivion. Since the basic ingredient for rum also has a history in Bayou dating back to 1700, it was quickly clear which spirit to choose. Rum had been produced in earlier years, but none of them had been able to gain a foothold in the high-price segment. The idea of Bayou rum was born, which is linked to old traditions, such as the introduction of the oldest sugar mill in America, and the latest technology in the form of distilleries.

Compared to the Bayou Reserve Rum, this one has significantly stronger aromas. The aromas are smoked oak, spicy pepper and sweet honey notes. Fruity notes can also be detected, reminiscent of tropical fruits.
