Rum barrel aged coffee
This is for a single bag of Rum barrel aged coffee. Photo to come.
Ahh, the sweet taste of rum.
We are excited to have received a freshly-emptied Rum barrel from our friends at Long Island Spirits. This barrel was used for the rum made for their Straight Bourbon Whiskey Finished in a Rum Cask. It was traditionally pot distilled from black strap molasses and pure cane sugar. We got the barrel after the rum was in it for 8 years!
Flavor notes:brown sugar, cinnamon, guava, vanilla orange
Bean: Brazil
Size: 12 oz, Whole Bean
Why we love it: We are big fans of the Long Island Spirits distillery. They're out on the North Fork of Long Island and do things right - farm to bottle, as they say. We tasted their rum and they offered us the barrel. It was exciting and we can't wait for you to try it..
Flavor: As with our other barrel-aged coffees, this is a balanced flavor. You'll notice that this is a great coffee with subtle notes of a rum. There's nothing artificial or added here. It's simply the chocolatey and nutty notes from the coffee bean, with the wonderful sweet oak and vanilla cinnamon from the rum. Delicious.
Notes:
None of our coffees contain any alcohol. The barrel aging just imparts the great flavors from the spirits it once held.
All of our coffees are whole bean. We recommend an electric burr grinder (sold at a wide range of prices).
