The Demons Share Premium Rum of Panama 12 years 0.7L 41% The Demons Share Some whisky lovers will probably wonder if someone has made a mistake with this name, because in the whisky scene there is actually only one so-called 'Angel's Share'. But all of those people should know that this is written this way on purpose. A brief explanation for all of those who don't really know what the term 'Angel's Share' is: During production and subsequent storage in oak barrels, a certain amount of the whisky evaporates, so it basically dissolves into thin air or, more in keeping with the name, it 'ascends to heaven'. This way even the angels can treat themselves to a sip of whisky. Marco Savio, founder of the brand 'The Demons Share', asks himself why only the angels should benefit from it, when they already have their fun with wine and ambrosia. So he turned the tables and called his whisky 'The Demons Share'. Premium Rum of Panama 12 years Even in the glass you can see an impressive 12-year-old rum with amazing mahogany reflections. If you first smell the rum aromas, you are greeted by familiar notes of exotic as well as local fruits such as apples and pears, as well as nuances of orange zest, cocoa or tobacco. If you take the tasting a step further and let the aromas unfold on the palate, further spicy notes are added. These are primarily accents of liquorice, cinnamon and vanilla. Even in the finish you can still detect one or two new aromas such as roasted coffee or cardamom.

Doorlys Rum 14 Years 0.7L 48% Rum from Barbados Doorlys Rum's originally come from the house of Martin Doorly, which operated as an independent bottler until 1993. In 1993, however, it was taken over by RL Seale and today Doorlys Rum is produced in the Foursquare distillery, which can be found on the island of Barbados. The Doorlys 14 Years is the oldest rum in the entire Doorly Rum series and is matured in former bourbon barrels. It is bottled at 48% vol. In terms of taste, the 14-year-old rum is very rich with subtle fruit and oak aromas. Notes of ripe apples and various other tropical fruits complement the taste. The finish is long-lasting with very balanced sweet and fruity notes. To reflect the rarity and beauty of Doorlys rums, a species of macaw is depicted on each bottle label. The Doorlys 14 year old in particular features a blue-throated macaw, of which there are only around 250-300 animals left living in the wild in their native lowland region of Bolivia.

Doorlys Rum 12 Years 0.7L 43% Barbados, one of the easternmost islands in the Caribbean, impresses with rums with strong character that are characterized by their geological uniqueness. In contrast to the volcanic origins of its neighbors, Barbados was formed from a coral reef, which means that the soil consists mainly of chemically advantageous limestone. Sugar cane cultivation for sugar production began as early as 1640, and the molasses residue left over from this process is still distilled into wonderful rum today. The Doorlys 12YO Rum is represented by RL Seal, one of the oldest family businesses on the island, which is passionately dedicated to liquid treasures. Production takes place in the Foursquare distillery in the south of the country, which is located on the site of a sugar factory founded in the 17th century and is one of the few distilleries still active on the island, which gives its rums a certain rarity. For this rum, the dark, viscous molasses is fermented with water and yeast to form a usable mash. After about a week of fermentation, the mash is distilled into young, white rum and then stored for twelve years in former bourbon barrels. The island's warm, tropical climate helps to refine and develop the taste. The weather causes the rum to age more quickly, and each year it becomes more complex and full of character. After 12 years, heavy rums from pot still and column still distillation processes are combined to create this blend. The result is a distillate that has the typical characteristics of a rum from Barbados: fruity, soft and slightly smoky. The Doorly's 12 year old is a mild rum with barely noticeable sweetness, but all the more fruity and spicy. Various tropical fruits, both fresh and dried, are recognizable and harmonize with slightly smoky tobacco leaves and the mature wood notes of the barrel storage.

The Demons Share Premium Rum of Panama 6 years 0.7L 40% The brand The Demons Share is the counterpart to the well-known 'Angels Share', which is a well-known term in whisky production. The Angels Share is the part that evaporates from the pores of the wooden barrels during years of storage of whisky, especially rum, or that rises to heaven for the angels. When Marco Savio founded his distillery and his own brand, however, he thought why only the angels should benefit and why it shouldn't just sink down to the demon realm the other way around. So he promptly named his rum brand 'The Demons Share'. Panama 6 YO Distilled using the column still method and aged for 6 years, the Panama rum from the Demons Share brand has a fine, sweet aroma. Vanilla notes can be detected as well as citrus fruits, green apple and oak notes. In the course of the tasting, further spice parameters can be detected, and a long-lasting finish rounds off the tasting.

Cruzan Black Strap Rum 1.0L 40% Cruzan Distillery The Cruzan Distillery comes from the Virgin Islands, more precisely from the island of St. Croix. The Nelthropp family has been producing rum there on the Estate Diamond since 1970. The family attaches great importance to the fact that the entire company and its success can be traced back not only to themselves as founders, but that the island itself and every employee who has ever worked there have also made a significant contribution to the company's success. Black Strap Rum For the Black Strap taste, which is intended to be reminiscent of the taste of the classic marine rums from the US Virgin Islands, Black Strap molasses is added to the rum. This is a black, viscous mass that remains after maximum extraction of sugar from sugar cane. This makes for a balanced, yet rather strong rum.

Pussers British Navy Rum Deptford Dockyard Reserve Edition 2022 0.7L 54.5% HM Victualling Yard, Deptford Served as the main dockyard of the Royal Navy for 300 years and in 1742 became the main spirits depot of the 'Victualling' Board, responsible for food supplies. The site was formerly known as the 'Red House' because of the red brick used to build the dockyard, factories and warehouses. Deptford was also later tasked with supplying storage yards in overseas stations with consumables such as rum, chocolate, biscuits, meat, candles, tobacco and clothing, as well as some non-consumable items such as medical supplies. The Navy blended prodigious quantities of rum during this period. Although historical accounts vary, the yard's warehouse grew to house between 30 and 32 storeships ranging in size from 4,600 to nearly 33,000 gallons in purpose-built buildings, with an estimated total capacity of 250,000 gallons of rum. Whether by design or luck, the final distillate issued by the Master Blenders at Deptford became known throughout the Royal Navy as "The Pusser's Rum" (a corruption of the word "Purser") and was highly regarded by the fleet and lucky civilians. To commemorate the 52nd anniversary of Black Dead Day, Pusser's Rum has released its limited edition Deptford Dockyard Reserve on Navy Proof (54.5% ABV). A blend of matured, high-ester spirits from Caribbean countries with a British colonial past - Guyana (Demerara), Trinidad, Barbados and Jamaica.

Michlers Old Bert Kingston Spiced 0.7L 40% Albert Michler Distillery The Albert Michler distillery was founded in 1863 in Silesia, in a part of what is now the Czech Republic, and is therefore one of the oldest distilleries and rum houses.

Savanna Rhum Blanc Traditionnel Intense 0.7L 40% Actually, people from overseas departments such as Guadeloup, Martinique or La Réunion are more likely to be familiar with the high-quality Rhum Agricole, which is distilled from fresh sugar cane juice. In contrast to this is the Rhum Industriale or Rhum Traditionnel, which are distilled from molasses. The Savanna Rhum Blance Intense falls into the second category. The Savanna distillery uses regional sugar cane for this, which is further processed into sugar in the Savanna distillery of the same name. The resulting molasses is then used to make rum. Tasting the Savanna Rhum Blanc Traditionnell Intense is a real experience. You can expect an intense aroma, which is primarily characterized by fruity notes. The fruits include plums, bananas, tropical pineapples and mirabelles, which create a great balance between sweetness and fruit acidity. The aroma of barley malt and sugar cane is also recognizable.

Michler's Jamaican Artisanal Dark Rum 0.7L 40% incl. cup The origins of the British distillery lie in Silesia, an area that was once part of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy and is now mostly in Poland. In 1863, Albert Michler founded his liqueur and spirits factory in Buchsdorf and quickly made a name for himself throughout the empire and kingdom for his distillates. In addition to local herbal distillates, his products also included imported rums from the Caribbean, and he was one of the first traders to bring exotic spirits to Europe. One outstanding recognition was his appointment as official supplier to the imperial and royal court, making Michler the rum supplier to the royal army. Although the distillery is now based in England, the spirit of the founder lives on in the bottles. The dark rum is made from various distillates, with the mash always coming from original Jamaican sugar cane. The rum from this mash is distilled using the traditional pot still method, which is done in batches due to the small stills and increases the quality of the distilled product. After 5 to 25 years of maturation in white oak barrels, the Artisanal Dark Rum is blended by experienced Caribbean distillers. The result is a wonderful dark rum that clearly shows its Jamaican origins. The distillate is round, balanced and yet strong in taste, thanks to the spirits that are up to 25 years old. It combines spicy wood notes from the oak barrels, fruity-sweet grapes and appealing nuances of sugar cane molasses to create a harmonious, dark beauty.

Savanna Rhum Agricole Blanc Straight Creol Batch No. 2 0.5L 67.4% The island of La Réunion, located in the Indian Ocean, is probably one of the best known places for special rum among rum lovers. The Savanna rum distillery located there is particularly known for its diversity. The distillery offers three 'basic' rum styles alone: Rum Agricole, which is made from fresh sugar cane juice, as well as Rum Traditionnel and Rum Grand Arôme. These are individually refined through various storage methods and offered on the market. The Blanc Creol Straight is one of the products in the 'Rum Agricole' style. Unlike brown rum, the Creol Blanc Straight was not aged in wooden barrels, but was bottled at cask strength immediately after distillation (also called 'brut de colonne'). Tasting With such a high-proof bottling, it is always possible that the alcoholic bite will be too strong when tasting. But this is different with this Rum Agricole. Despite the high alcohol content, it is pleasant to drink and gives the aromas plenty of room to develop. At the beginning you can detect sweet sugar cane notes. This is accompanied by anise and spicy notes of pepper.
