Old Monk Rum The Legend 1.0L 42.8%

Old Monk - A Legend In the world of rum, "Old Monk" is one of the most famous bottlings and one of the best-selling rums in the world. Its origins surprise many, because Old Monk does not come from the Caribbean as some people assume, but from India, which is one of the world's largest alcohol-producing countries.

Old Monk Rum is produced by Mohan Meakin Pvt. Ltd., which is a merger of several companies and whose history stretches back to the middle of the 19th century, when Scottish entrepreneur Edward Dyer built the Dyer Brewery in Kasauli in the Himalayas to supply his local countrymen with beer. Due to the high demand, Dyer built further breweries and the brewery in Kasauli was converted into a distillery. In 1887, another British entrepreneur - HG Meakin - set up breweries in India and after the First World War, the two companies merged as "Dyer Meakin Breweries", which Narendra Nath Mohan joined and the company thus received its current name Mohan Meakin Pvt. Ltd., whose main brands are Old Monk Rum and Golden Eagle Beer.

Old Monk "The Legend" After the somewhat dry history behind the manufacturing company, we would now like to turn to the more exciting topic - rum.

If you like the normal "Old Monk" rum, you will love the Old Monk "The Legend". The various rum distillates for this special bottling mature for at least 18 years in oak barrels, where they develop their full aroma and are then combined to form this blend. Bottled in the stylish monk's head bottle, the Old Monk "The Legend" is a highlight in every spirits collection and a great gift for lovers and collectors of good rum.

This incomparable rum impresses with aromas of exotic spices such as cloves and cinnamon and subtle nuances of banana, butterscotch, sugar cane molasses and citrus fruits. The aftertaste is amazingly complex and leaves hints of oak and vanilla on the palate. In contrast to the classic Old Monk, we recommend not using "The Legend" as a mixed spirit, but enjoying it neat or "on the rocks".

Old Monk XXX Black Rum 0,7L 37,5%

Old Monk XXX Black Rum 0.7L 37.5% Graceful shine The Old Monk XXX Black is a rum that is second to none and has a certain value among collectors. The graceful bottle contains a very long-aged rum from the Mohan Meakin Distillery, which is based in Ghaziabad, India.

In many steps, they act in the same way as their ancestors. In fact, the current representatives of the third generation still work in the company today. They have inherited the specialist knowledge and skills from their ancestors and are up to the challenge.

Each bottle of Old Monk Rum is handmade from start to finish. Therefore, it is a unique product, or rather, a one-of-a-kind, and its taste is also unmistakable! After distillation from molasses, the rum was placed in oak barrels to mature for at least a decade. Exotic, fruity! On the nose, the Old Monk XXX Black has a predominantly fruity, but not too sweet or spicy note. It has a typically Asian effect, which is probably due to the spices from Indian cuisine. The sweetness is even more evident in the taste, but the fruit and spice are not lost. The vanilla creates an apparently harmonious and round finish that you can rave about for a while. This Indian companion impresses down to the smallest detail and at an unbeatable price! For rum lovers who would like to enter the premium segment with a gentle drop. Enjoyed neat, the Old Monk XXX Black is an incredible firework!
