Rude Mechanicals English Vigneron Golden Rum
£35.00
Rude Mechanicals is the collaborative spirits project born from decades in the wine industry, bringing a winemaker's palate together with world-class distilling expertise. Vigneron Rum is a (mostly) English golden rum, made the slow way - from pure sugar cane molasses, double distilled in small copper stills, then finished in barrels that once held red wine from the Rhône.
Molasses is a tricky, sticky place to start - it takes real skill to coax a clean spirit from it. Our distiller, Dr John, distils it twice to capture only the best, purest part of each batch. From there, the rum spends 10 months resting in barrels that previously aged red wine for three years. That time leaves its mark: soft oak character, a touch of colour, and hints of the wine that came before - all without needing any added sweetness or spice. The result is bottled at a considered 42%.

Tasting Notes
Deep amber-gold in colour, with an inviting nose of cocoa, warm spice and toasted hazelnut. Smooth and nutty on the palate, with notes of orange marmalade, praline and red apple, finishing long with a gentle grip from its time in barrel.
Serve
Best enjoyed simply - over a single cube of ice. For cocktails, its drier, textured style works particularly well in a Marmalade Mojito or a Rum Old Fashioned.
