East Neuk Spirit Company has unveiled its first release in the Dorchadas Washed Ashore Series.
The Series aims to focus on discovering rare and premium rums, distilled in their tropical origins and matured along the cold, fair shores of the UK.
The first single cask to “wash ashore” is an example of the Agricole style for which the French Caribbean is renowned.
Its journey began in the hot, humid climate of Mauritius, where it was matured in French virgin oak casks and once the cask reached the UK, it was re-racked into an exBourbon cask, where the cooler climate allowed for a slow, gentle finish.
“We are thrilled to launch the Dorchadas Washed Ashore Series, starting with this exceptional single cask rum,” said Sarah Banyard for East Neuk Spirit Company.
“It’s not just about the flavour; it’s about the story behind each cask, the journey it has undertaken, and the experiences captured in every drop.”
