Jogaila Reserva Dry Rum

Jogaila Reserva Dry Rum is a 38% rum from Gas Familia's Jogaila range, bottled at 700ml. The producer describes it as a true Caribbean rum, made by continuous, multiple distillation of 100% real sugar cane. It is then matured in 300-litre oak barrels that previously held 5-year-old Zamoyski Brandy, which gives the rum a richer, more developed taste. Blending takes place only in European oak vats, made from oak grown at around 800 m above sea level, and the storage rooms swing between -25°C and +25°C through the year. As the word Dry suggests, this is a rum for drinkers who prefer a less sweet style, with an oak-led aroma and delicate brandy character. The Jogaila name honours the Grand Duke of Lithuania and King of Poland who, according to brand legend, received sugar cane juice as a wedding gift.

Nose: Oak, with delicate brandy notes.

Serve: Neat or over a large ice cube.
