RumRum - Batch 007

RumRum Batch 007

RumRum is our pride and joy — our reason for being — and the one we all love to spend our time with.

Crafted to be what we call a “sessionable sipping rum,” it’s all about striking the right balance of depth and complexity. Not so easy that it becomes boring after a while, and not so intense that it’s too much after the first glass.

Batch 007

Seven batches in, and we broke one of our own rules.

RumRum Batch 007 is a seven-barrel blend. We normally stop at four. Sensible. Controlled. Very adult.

But while test-blending barrels ahead of decanting, the rum had other ideas. Each extra barrel made the blend richer, rounder, and more interesting. So we kept going.

It doesn’t always work like that.

This time, it really, really did.

The History

It all started with a mad 2 a.m. light-bulb moment — an idea that would take seven years to come to life: the dream to build Victoria’s first dedicated craft rum distillery.

With a bucket-load of passion and a touch of rambunctiousness, we present the first Victorian-produced rum releases.

Made from Australian-grown and owned molasses, distilled in our gorgeous Italian copper still Matilda, then aged in 200 L ex-bourbon barrels and released as single casks or small-batch blends.

Each batch of RumRum is cut (ABV adjusted between 45–55%) to be the best sipping rum it can be — a spirit to raise the gauntlet to fine whiskies and brandies, and to show the world what rum can be.

A sipping rum to be savoured neat, over ice, or with just a drop or two of water.
