In our Era of Discovery edition, we aimed to bring our fans bottlings that represent the diversity of the rum world. In this set, we reached into Venezuelan deposits that aged in ex-bourbone casks in Vizovice, and the final touch was given by the casks that previously stored sherry.
This rum was 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.
We imported the rum into Czech Republic and stored it into ex-bourbon oak casks, and then in barrels, where previously rested Spanish sherry Pedro Ximénez.
Thanks to the influence of sherry, the elegant character of Venezuelan rum gained a charming aroma from this unique wine. Leaving its fingerprints of sophisticated refinement, it enriched the rum with sweet, warming tones that reflect the craftsmanship and long-standing tradition of Spanish wine masters.
Different worlds and different cultures joined together to create a unique rum, already the fifth series 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.
