Head to the St. Augustine Distillery Gift Shop this Saturday, July 20, 2024 for the Ultra Premium Rum Release in St. Augustine.  Open 10:00am to 6:00pm.

The Reserve Rum is the distillery’s first ultra-premium rum. And, the first developed under the leadership of production head Richard deMontmollin.

This limited edition rum blends 4-year-old rum, 3-year-old “Queen’s Share” rum, and rum aged for over a year in a Spanish orange wine (Vino de Naranja) cask.  It is then aged for an additional year in a cask that previously aged Cognac for 10 years, resulting in a complex and layered rum.

“Our Reserve Rum is the culmination of years of dedication, experimentation, and passion,” said Richard deMontmollin, Vice President of Production at St. Augustine Distillery. “This release showcases our commitment to pushing the boundaries of rum making and delivering a truly unique spirit.”

The Reserve Rum has a distinctive nose of cane ethanol, ripe banana, Madagascar vanilla, and earthy roots. The palate features sweet orange, grassy notes, licorice, crisp mint, and a creamy mouthfeel, with a finish marked by lingering cane sweetness, vanilla, and quickly fading oak.

This process highlights St. Augustine Distillery’s expertise in creating diverse offerings from a single spirit type, using casks that previously housed Cognac, Madagascar vanilla beans, Orange Wine, and the distillery’s Florida Bourbon.
