Takamaka Bay Rum White Overproof, 0.7 L, 69% History and production of Takamaka White Overproof 69 Rum: Takamaka, the name already sounds like vacation. Inevitably, a picture of turquoise sea, palm trees and sandy beaches appears in the mind's eye. And indeed: Takamaka is a rum made in the Seychelles from freshly pressed sugar cane juice, which combines the culture and flair of the island state. The numerous islands of the Seychelles are located in the Indian Ocean, about 800 km east of the African mainland. Due to the great distance from continental landmasses, a unique flora and fauna has developed over the millennia, which also differs from island to island and ensures a great deal of diversity. The climate is warm and humid, the volcanic origin with its fertile soil offers ideal conditions for growing sugar cane. In 2001, the two local d'Offay brothers decided to use the sugar cane from their own plantations to make rum, and Takamaka was born. Since then, numerous creations based on fresh sugar cane juice have appeared. All Takamaka products therefore delight with a very typical note that can best be described as a combination of fruitiness, sweetness and a slight grassiness. The Takamaka portfolio shines with a fruity, fresh white rum, a full-bodied brown rum, a spiced rum and a pineapple and coconut rum - all available here in our shop. The latest product is the Takamaka White Overproof 69 Rum. This is the undiluted version of the popular Takamaka White Rum, which with its 69% ABV makes quite a racket on the tongue and is particularly predestined for targeted use in cocktails. Like the other Takamaka products, the Takamaka White Overproof 69 Rum comes in a completely revised design. The bright turquoise shines like the Indian Ocean that surrounds the Seychelles, but leaves enough room for an unobstructed view of the crystal-clear contents. Tasting the Takamaka White Overproof 69 Rum: The Takamaka White Overproof 69 Rum forms long streaks in the glass and appears extremely oily. The bouquet is characterized by a phenomenal abundance of aromas. In addition to tropical fruits such as bananas, pineapples and mangos, there are also pears, apples, sugar cane and raspberries. Surrounded by earth and grass tones, a fine spiciness and roasted peanuts emerge in the background. On the nose, the Takamaka White Overproof 69 Rum is the archetype of a Rhum Agricoles, i.e. a rum made from fresh sugar cane juice, with a complexity that cannot be found in any other white rum. With its strong 69% alcohol by volume, the Takamaka White Overproof 69 Rum represents the true face of the Seychelles on the tongue: straightforward, unvarnished, natural and with a pinch of Creole flair. When enjoyed neat, however, you should consider diluting it with a few drops of water. Otherwise, the taste buds will be faced with an almost impossible task. With its rough, direct character, the Takamaka White Overproof 69 Rum takes every rum cocktail to a higher level and provides the necessary kick of sugar cane and tropical fruits. The Takamaka White Overproof 69 Rum also cuts a fabulous figure in the Ti Punch. However, you should be careful to use it sparingly, otherwise the sheer power of the distillate will be difficult to tame.

William Hinton Rum Natural Limited Edition 0.7L 69% In 2006, the Rum Project was born when sugar cane production in Madeira was increasing sharply and a solution was needed to meet the needs of the growing sugar cane sector and help the numerous farmers dedicated to sugar cane cultivation. Driven by the special dedication of one of its founders, a descendant of the Hinton family, former owners and success creators of the "Fábrica do Torreão" in the sugar cane sector, the creation of Engenho Novo in Madeira was born. In the first phase, ENM produced Agricola rum and sugar cane honey to supply the local gastronomy. Later, the transformation of agricultural rum into high-quality products such as liqueurs or aged rums took place. ENM now sources all its agricole rum production from a centenary column still, restored by Fábrica do Torreão in 1969 and restored/rebuilt again by ENM in 2007. The company focuses on two main areas: the regional market and the global marketing of Madeira Agricole rum. The sudden global interest in Agricole rums, which represent only 5% of global rum production, has driven the internationalization and marketing of Madeira rum produced by ENM. The unique geographical location, climate, landscape and historical link with the sector make Madeira Island's agricole rum an outstanding product, the aging of which is ENM's main focus. This William Hinton Rum Natural Limited Edition with an alcohol content of 69% vol. is a white rum of exceptional quality. On the palate, this overproof rum shows its fullness and naturalness through fresh, herbal notes and a well-present sugar cane flavor.
