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.
