Prohibida Rum

Prohibida is only the 2nd ever rum expression we've released to market since we began laying rum down nearly 10 years ago. Created like all our rums, from 100% domestic molasses, but with the addition of aged dunder, Prohibida was double pot distilled then aged in entirely used cooperage, before being finished in our own ex-peated Balcones single malt casks. Matured for 33 months and bottled at 50% ABV.

On the nose, subtle golden notes of tapioca pudding, lemon meringues, and bruised honeysuckle intricately intertwined with faint smoky notes of distant bonfire, smoked pear, & palo santo.

The palate is playful and calm, with spritely notes of tepache, ground coriander, & grated nutmeg easing into sweet fire-roasted melon & mango custard, before long notes of ginger lemon gumdrops lace into a relaxing finish of maduro cigar smoke, clove cigarettes, & jasmine glaze.

Prohibida is subtle, yet quietly dynamic, even-tempered but playful; easily sipped from a Glencairn over a long evening with a mellow cigar, but with enough character to stand out in a Painkiller or floated on a frozen colada.
