Floating Dutchman set out to create an original South African rum using the finest local ingredients. Originating in Cape Town in 2016 it took 3 years to perfect the process. From perfecting the fermentation mix to selecting the distilling method the ambition grew to create an authentic drinking experience that would champion the region. Through a combination of traditional and modern methods we were able to create a truly unique South African experience.
Distilled from fermented blackstrap molasses, aged in french oak barrels, masterfully blended for an unrivalled finish.
A floral bouquet with hints of vanilla, spice and oak. Smooth Chocolate and Caramel notes on the palate allow for a light savoury molasses finish
