Project Release Single Cask Rum
51% ALC/VOL 700mlThis project release is the very first barrel we ever filled - Cask #001. It is a barrel that predates our obsession with rye whiskey and the weird post-pandemic world we live in today - it’s a barrel from a simpler time.
Single Cask Rum is an experimental project not made from our iconic 100% Australian unmalted rye, instead undergoing its final resting place in a freshly disgorged Straight Rye Whiskey barrel.
The result is an exceptional 7-year-old rum with a deep and undeniable pot still rum funk and sweetness followed by a backbone of rye whiskey cask influence.
Enjoyed on the rocks or in a Dark ‘N’ Stormy, Single Cask Rum is best shared in the company of family and friends.
Flavour Notes
Notes of dried apricot, brown sugar, toffee, crème caramel, roasted hazelnuts, orange marmalade, nutmeg, cinnamon, jasmine and leatherwood honey.
It is aromatic on the nose, salty and savoury on the palate with a warming rye spice to finish.

Cask #001
You can only ever do anything first, once. This Single Cask Rum is exactly that for us - the first barrel we filled at our first distillery in South Melbourne, Cask #001.
Double distilled in direct fired pot stills from Australian sugarcane, Single Cask Rum was aged for most of its life in a re-coopered Australian red wine cask that had been charred in the alleyway behind the South Melbourne distillery, and kept at ground level to ensure a slow, gentle maturation.
The rum was finally transferred to a freshly disgorged Straight Rye Whiskey barrel, adding an additional layer of complexity and further emphasising its unique character.
