Privateer - Navy Yard Rum Cask 986 750ml

Privateer Navy Yard Rum Cask 986 stands as a bold testament to authentic American distilling. Selected exclusively as a Florida Rum Society barrel pick, this rare single cask expression highlights the uncompromising vision of Privateer Rum. Unlike heavily sweetened commercial brands that rely on artificial dyes and flavors, this pure spirit is crafted entirely from premium Grade A molasses. It is double distilled and aged for four full years in a single, charred new American oak barrel. The brisk North Atlantic climate of Massachusetts shapes its deep character, delivering a rum of exceptional structure and incredible depth.

Bottled at a robust cask strength of 112.8 proof, this unadulterated rum glows with a deep copper color in the glass. The aroma opens with rich waves of warm oak and toasted walnut, lifted by soft hints of caramelized sugar and delicate anise. On the palate, it is dry, assertive, and beautifully textured. The new American oak imparts a firm grip that perfectly highlights the natural spice of the spirit. Flavors of vanilla bean and light molasses blend smoothly with a whisper of licorice. The experience finishes with long, satisfying notes of ground nutmeg and sea salted chocolate.

This exclusive Florida Rum Society selection is an essential addition for any serious collector. It delivers a powerful, oak driven profile that celebrates honest, traditional rum making. Enjoy this complex cask strength spirit neat, or add a single drop of clean water to unlock even more aromatic depth.
