In our Era of Discovery edition, we aimed to bring our fans bottlings that represent the diversity of the rum world. In this bottling, we reached into Venezuelan deposits that aged in ex-bourbon casks in Vizovice, and the final touch was given by the casks that previously stored sherry and cognac.

You’re holding a rum distilled and aged in Venezuela under the label of Distribuidora Sofa company. The molasses is fermented with a species of yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae type and distilled mostly in multi-column apparatus in which they produce a wide range of distillates, from light to heavy. For ageing, they predominantly use ex-bourbon barrels made from American white oak.

The rum was brought to the Czech Republic, where its aging continued and its final character was shaped — one of the most complex in the Era of Discovery collection. It reflects a playful fusion of flavors and aromas that first carry you to the sunlit climate of Venezuela’s rainforests, then to mysterious cellars of Jerez in Spain, before concluding the journey in the mild oceanic climate of the Grande Champagne region in western France.

Different worlds and different cultures joined together to create a unique rum, already the sixth on our journey with the edition “Era of Discovery“. Come and stop the time for a moment with us to enjoy the next of discoveries that we worked so hard on. There is not such a thing as a perfect rum. But if we try hard enough, we can create something excellent.

Welcome to our voyage full of discoveries.
