MCJB Jamaican Rum 15 Year Old 2008 Single Cask, Little Brown Dog

5 distillates, 4 distilleries, one mighty good rum.

This single cask Jamaican Rum from Little Brown Dog Spirits is a unique blend of five distillates matured in a single refill barrel since 2015, with a rather complicated back story but one that has resulted in an even more interesting and complex rum.

While initially thought to be a Monymusk single cask, this cask’s complex history instead revealed it to be a fabulous blend of 

• Long Pond 2005 - Pot Still
• Clarendon 2007 - Column & Pot Still
• New Yarmouth 2005 - Pot Still, and
• Worthy Park 2008 - Pot Still

Which were all blended together into this refill barrel in 2015 and laid to marry together for another 8 years before being bottled by the folks at Little Brown Dog at it's natural cask strength of 58.1%.

They reckon it's one of the best rums they've bottled, maybe even one of the best casks, with only 250 bottles available worldwide.
