Flag Series - Barbados Single Cask Rum 2011 700ml

Flag Series Barbados 2011 is a remarkable aged rum that captures the true essence of Caribbean distilling. Created at an acclaimed distillery built on a historic sugar refinery site, this limited release offers an unmatched tasting experience. The production team masterfully blends rich molasses spirits from a traditional pot still with refined liquids from a double column still. They combine these elements before placing them in oak barrels, creating a deeply integrated profile from the very beginning.

What sets this rum apart from mass produced competitors is its highly unique fourteen year double aging process. The spirit spends its first eight years maturing in the tropical heat of Barbados. This climate accelerates the interaction between the liquid and the wood to build deep flavor. It then travels to Europe for six years of continental aging, allowing the rum to slowly develop incredible elegance and complexity.

Bottled exactly at cask strength of 64.6 percent alcohol, this pure spirit is completely free of added colors, sugars, filtration, or water. In the glass, it opens with rich aromas of cocoa bean, warm baking spices, and subtle medicinal hints. The palate is lively and full, delivering bold waves of cane sugar, vanilla, and ripe fruit, balanced by a delicate touch of cayenne pepper heat. The finish is remarkably long, leaving lasting notes of dark plum, bitter chocolate, and candied ginger.

Limited to a highly exclusive 235 bottles, this rare rum is a true collectible treasure for any serious enthusiast. Serve it neat in a proper tasting glass to fully appreciate its bold character and uncompromising craftsmanship.
