Rum of the day 17

Batavia Arrack

By the Dutch Batavia Arrack is a distillate based on sugar-cane molasses, produced exclusively on the island of Java, Indonesia, dated back to the 17th century. It’s comprised of a very specific range of pot still distillates originating from the East Indies, produced on the Island of Java, Indonesia. It’s the “rum of Indonesia”. The fermentation process includes the addition of local fermented (red) rice; it is this, which sets it apart from Rum, although the base material is still sugar cane. Distillation of our Batavia Arrack is carried out using very traditional Pot stills, adopting ancient Chinese distillers’ methods. Our Master Blender created a excellent product, aged in oak barrels up to 8 years, causing fantastic rich and deep flavors, lingering on the palate.
