In the 1800s, Caribbean rums made from native sugarcane in Trinidad, Guyana and Barbados were shipped in casks to the Port of New Orleans to quench the thirst of the growing American spirits market. Jung & Wulff were early importers of rum, distributing it to cafs and bars across New Orleans and beyond.

This blend of pot and column still rums, sourced from Guyana’s Demerara Distillers Limited, shows a toasted opening, rich and creamy in texture, almost confectionary at the start. It becomes roasted and bittersweet and slightly smoky with an undercurrent of grassiness at the midpalate. And for the finish, it just keeps revolving. Bottled at 43% abv.
