Bayou Gold Select Rum

Description

THE RUM FOR BOURBON DRINKERSMatured in bourbon barrels for up to 3 years using the Solera aging method. 40% ABVHand Crafted, Pot-Distilled, & Naturally Gluten-Free THE SOLERA AGING METHODAs we built our Solera aging system, our barrels were tipped on their sides, filled with Bayou Rum, and then vertically stacked into a pyramid. The oldest rum barrels ended up right on the ground which is the meaning of solera in Spanish. When we harvest for a batch, the bottom barrel is tapped for part of its content to be bottled. Then that bottom barrel is topped off from the next oldest barrel above it, which is filled from the next oldest, and so on until we refill the top barrel with new rum to mingle with older aged rum. For the next aging interval it happens all over again. The benefit is a natural blending process for consistent taste and quality which gets better each time we harvest a batch. The result is delicious Bayou Select Rum.Matured in Bourbon barrels for up to 3 years using the Solera aging method.NOSECreamy vanilla with hints of apple and cinnamonPROFILEOpens with a dry oak-like character reminiscent of an aged bourbon, followed by pronounced cinnamon and mapleMOUTHFEELDry with long-lasting notes of dark fruit and woodWHAT THE EXPERTS ARE SAYING…CATEGORY WINNERWorld Rum Awards, 2016BEST IN CLASSMiami Rum Festival Rum XP Award, 2016BEST OF CATEGORYAmerican Distilling Institute, 2015
