Rum from Antigua

Within the group of the Lesser Antilles in the Caribbean lies the island of Antigua, which was colonized by the British in 1632 - around 150 years after its discovery. The first sugar cane was finally grown on the island around 1650 and the first rum was distilled a little later. Sugar cane production grew dramatically in the following years and by 1897, 6,000 hectares of the island were already planted with sugar cane, which was processed in almost 80 factories. By 1939, the number of factories had dropped to two, which meant that the end of large-scale rum production was in sight.

The dwindling number of distilleries also meant that the number of different rums available to bar owners for blending their blends also dropped. This led to discontent within the bar scene, which is why some shop owners joined forces and bought their own plantation, where they eventually opened their own distillery and began distilling muscovado molasses in pot stills, with the distillates eventually being sold as white and aged brown rum under the brand name Caballero. In the 1950s, the pot stills were replaced by a copper column system and the name of Caballero rum was finally changed to Cavalier Rum. In addition to the well-known Cavalier Rum, the Antigua Distillery also produces the English Harbour export line.

English Harbour Madeira Cask Finish

The rum used for the English Harbour Madeira Cask Finish matures for five years in ex-bourbon barrels before it is finally finished for 3-6 months in Madeira barrels from Malmsey & Bual. On the nose, the copper-coloured rum shows warm and inviting notes of walnuts and hazelnuts, which are launched by cinnamon, fresh citrus fruits and marzipan notes. On the palate, the rum is reminiscent of marzipan, white chocolate and light citrus fruits. The aftertaste is strong and with a noble Madeira note. The noble English Harbour Madeira Cask Finish should be enjoyed neat and is well suited to combining with dark chocolate.

English Harbour Rum Sherry Cask Finish Batch 3 0,7L 46%
English Harbour Rum Sherry Cask Finish Batch 3 0.7L 46% Rum from Antigua The history of rum production on Antigua begins very early. The first rum-like distillate was probably produced on the Caribbean island shortly after the first sugar cane was grown around 1650. Sugar cane production grew dramatically and in 1764 6,000 hectares of land were planted with sugar cane, which was processed in 78 factories. By 1939, however, this number had fallen to two and the end of rum production was in sight. To counteract the downward trend, a group of shop owners in Antigua came together in 1932, bought their own plantation and built a distillery. The Antigua Distillery initially produced in pot stills and had a matured and a white rum in its range, which were made from muscovado molasses. In the 1950s, however, these were replaced by a copper column system and the former name of the rum - Caballero - was changed to Cavalier. In addition to the Cavalier Rum, the Antigua Distillery also produces English Harbour Rum, which is intended for export. English Harbour Sherry Cask Finish The English Harbour Sherry Cask Finish Rum was stored for five years in ex-bourbon barrels made of American white oak and was then transferred to Oloroso sherry barrels from Spain, in which it spent a further three to six months. The production batches are relatively small and the English Harbour Sherry Cask Finish Rum is not chill-filtered and is bottled without artificial flavors and colorings. The nose reveals fine notes of cinnamon, pepper and cloves as well as traces of wood. On the palate, these notes are complemented by a fine orange fruit note, nuts and caramel. The aftertaste is peppery and relatively long. The strong finish is characterized by roasted aromas. The English Harbour Sherry Cask Finish Rum is the ideal accompaniment to fruity desserts or a light cigar. We also recommend enjoying it neat and using it, if at all, only in extremely high-quality cocktails. It is a small batch rum with numbered bottles and a limited edition.

English Harbour Rum Port Cask Finish Batch 2 0.7L 46% Antiguan Rum Antigua is an island in the Lesser Antilles in the Caribbean and was not colonised by the British until almost 150 years after its discovery in 1632. Just a few years later - around 1650 - the first sugar cane was grown on the island and a little later the first rum was distilled. In the following years, sugar cane production grew dramatically and by 1897 6,000 hectares of the island were planted with sugar cane, which was processed in 78 factories. The number of factories had fallen to two by 1939 and this also meant the end of large-scale rum production. As the number of distilleries dwindled, the number of rums available to bar owners for blending also decreased, which is why in 1932 a small number of shop owners joined forces and bought their own plantations, eventually opening their own distillery. In this distillery, muscovado molasses was distilled in pot stills and a white and an aged brown rum was produced, which was sold under the brand name Caballero. The original pot stills were replaced by a copper column system in the 1950s and the name of the Caballero rums was changed to Cavalier. In addition to the Cavalier rums, the Antigua Distillery produces English Harbour rums for export. English Harbour Port Cask Finish The rum for the English Harbour Port Cask Finish is stored for five years in former bourbon barrels made of American white oak before being finished for 3-6 months in approximately 100-year-old Royal O'Porto port wine barrels. The slightly amber-colored rum impresses on the nose with nuances of plums, dried fruits, almonds, citrus peel and ginger. Aromas of grated black pepper, wild berries and a hint of leather are present on the palate. The aftertaste is long and infused with notes of tobacco leaves. An ideal dessert rum that also goes well with a pipe and is best enjoyed neat.

English Harbour Rum 10 Years Old, 0,7L 40%

Average rating of 4.2 out of 5 stars

English Harbour Rum 10 Years, 0,7 L, 40%
English Harbour Rum 10 years 0.7L 40% The history of English Harbour English Harbour Rum is produced by Antigua Distillery LTD on the island of Antigua in the Caribbean. The tradition of rum production on Antigua dates back to the early 19th century, when local farm owners used simple pot stills to produce relatively light and elegant rums for their own use. With the demise of private rum production in the early 20th century, rum traders began to create their own blends and sell them under catchy names such as Red Cock, House and Silver Leaf. In 1932, some of the most successful rum traders finally joined forces and founded the Antigua Distillery Company. After selling two different types of rum and an aged rum called "Caballero Rum" in the early days of the company, several sugar cane farms and a sugar factory were acquired in 1934 and the company began producing its own molasses and muscovado sugar. The molasses from the muscovado sugar was finally processed into rum from the 1950s onwards. The production of the English Harbour Rum 10 years As in the days of old, the English Harbour Rum 10 years is distilled from the best molasses. This is done at Antigua Distillers in a continuous distillation plant with five copper columns. After distillation, the English Harbour Rum is stored for more than ten years in used whiskey and bourbon barrels. After maturation, the English Harbour Rum 10 years is bottled at 40% vol. The taste of the English Harbour Rum 10 years The smoky aromas from the oak barrels combine pleasantly with aromas of citrus fruits, dried fruits, vanilla and notes of burnt sugar in the nose of the English Harbour Rum 10 years. Coconut, cinnamon, butterscotch, coffee, baked apple and floral nuances define the taste of the English Harbour Rum 10 years. In the aftertaste, the English Harbour Rum 10 years reveals slightly smoky notes and spices such as cardamom that linger on the palate for a long time. The English Harbour Rum 10 years is one of the best dark rums in its price range!
