Black Barrel NAVY SPICED RUM
A
.H. RIISE’S RUMS have always been closely connected to the world’s oceans and the seafaring life, and the wonderful-tasting Black Barrel Navy Spiced Rum is no exception. Decades of experience in aging and blending are evident in this spiced rum. Through aging in heavily burnt oak casks the rum gains a character and colour that lives completely up to its name: black as night and spiced according to an ancient secret recipe. Charring of barrels was done by 15th century by French Cognac producers as a means of removing traces of previously stored fish and salted meat products. They also realised that while the charred wood created a darker spirit, the flavour also changed. The wood behind the charring had been opened up with the heat and now infused the aging spirit with more-complex woody tones, also with reduced levels of tannin.
A steadfast companion on shore, at sea and in the air.
