Lot number: 089-0814

Winning bid: £65

The Transcontinental Rum Line is a series from La Maison Du Whisky. Comprised of rums from different distilleries, that have been partially matured in their tropical homes before being shipped across the Atlantic Ocean for further maturation in Europe. While this may sound convoluted, it's actually very cost effective as it prevents the greedy tropical angels from getting quite such a monstrous share of the precious spirit.

Line #6

Distilled at the Foursquare distillery on Barbados and aged on the island for three years. Two casks then crossed the Atlantic Ocean in 2009 for close to 7 years of continental maturation. To confirm its naval personality, this small batch has been reduced at 57%, the mythic Navy Strength.

Distilled: 2006

Bottled: 2016

57% ABV / 70cl
