About this bottle

Virago Ruby Port Cask Finished Rum is a blend of pot and column distilled rums from four Caribbean locations: an 8-year-old Barbadian, a 4-year-old Jamaican, a 5-8-year-old Nicaraguan, and a 6-year-old Panamanian. It undergoes a multi-month finishing period in used ruby port casks from Portugal's Douro Valley before bottling at 40% ABV.

Ashley Isaacs 5.0

Great rum for drinking straight. It has light, sulfurous smoke notes. The palate has bright dried cherry and delicious tobacco hints.

Leeann Haggerty 3.5

Not ideal for drinking straight, but their distillery produces excellent cocktails that effectively enhance the rum's flavors.
