About Admiral Rodney HMS Royal Oak Extra Old Saint Lucia Rum
Admiral George B. Rodney was a master at naval strategy, a big-time gambler, and not really shy about collecting all that war loot. He'll always be remembered for his epic win at the Battle of the Saints — in 1782, the French were gunning for the Caribbean Sugar Islands, but Rodney was ready and waiting. He outsmarted the French admiral and sailed straight through the gaps in their line to claim victory, using the famous tactic known as "breaking the line." Today, the Admiral Rodney Rum Series honors those brave Brits who beat the French fleet — and with much success, for their Rum received Gold at the International Wine & Spirits Competition in London, the World Spirits Competition in Germany, and the Rum Trophy at the International Spirits Challenge.
HMS Royal Oak — an important ship that sailed at the very center of the English line in the Battle of Les Saintes. Commanded by Thomas Burnett, it flaunted 74 guns that successfully shelled the enemy, making her one of the star players in the battle. This expression features a blend of traditional rums crafted in a Coffey still at St Lucia Distillers and aged for 7 to 12 years in American white oak barrels, previously holding bourbon. A beautiful medley of raisins, prunes, tropical spice, chocolate, and toasty oak will entice your tastebuds, finishing the journey with a wave from sweet fruits, caramel, and spices.

About Rum
Rum history allegedly started in the Carribiens in the 17th century when they started to ferment and distill molasses, a byproduct of sugar production. Most of the Rum is aged in oak or ex-wine casks, giving its color and flavor.
We distinguish between 4 different Rum categories, where white or unaged rum is mainly used in cocktails, while dark, spiced, and añejo (aged) rum are mostly enjoyed neat.
This amber beauty opens with aromas of plums, raisins, toasted oak, and tropical spices on the nose. Its palate is intense and enticing with flavors of sweet raisins, prunes, tobacco, chocolate, notes of vanilla, and oak. Expect a long and complex goodbye that will sway you away with a mush of sweet fruit, caramel, and spices.
