Introducing the first in the Northern Rivers Rum Special Cask series (formerly Viva). Bottled at a robust 49%, this is the pinnacle of Soltera Rum craft and the distillery's first Pure Single Rum. This means it was batch distilled in a pot still (pure), produced in a single distillery rather than blended from various (single), and was made from fermented molasses (rum). It is 100% Australian craft rum.
This expression marks a significant milestone for the distillery, showcasing the transformative power of time and the unique terroir of the Tweed Valley in the Northern Rivers of New South Wales.
This rum:
- was long fermented in early summer 2021 using Tweed Shire molasses from the Condong Sugar Mill
- double distilled in a copper pot still in late 2021
- aged for over three years in a 115-litre American oak ex-bourbon cask that was re-coopered in South Australia with a medium char and new oak heads
- is a single cask release.
The medium char has filtered the spirit and adds caramel and bold flavours, while the subtropical climate of Cabarita Beach has accelerated the ageing process, creating a rich interplay between the rum and its barrel. The result is a deeply complex spirit with layers of caramel, spice, and tropical fruit, all infused with the region's signature salty coastal influence.
