RED MILL RUM CLASSIC RUM 40% 700ML

The Red Mill Classic Rum is our expression of the old and the new.

When Red Mill first started in 1933, it was humble. Much of the history of rum is humble – it’s often about convenience and happenstance. Old Bourbon barrels were cheap and plentiful, so that’s how Caribbean Rum was aged. Sailors across the centuries had a taste for rum because it was the one spirit made near the coast.

Rum has a million stories like this. The story of Red Mill, Sydney Harbour, and the Fesq family are no different.

For blending the Classic, we took a selection of casks that were approximately 50% ex-whiskey casks (Bourbon, Scotch and mixed Quarter Casks), and 50% ex-wine casks (Australian Pinot Noir and Red Bordeaux).

We allowed this blend to settle in a custom 1000L Foudre cask for six weeks before bottling by hand at 40%ABV for a beautiful sipping, versatile style.

This is the 6th batch of rum we have bottled. 1700 bottles produced.
