EXPLORE THE INAUGURAL COLLECTION
Spinnaker's inaugural release brings together four exceptional rums from some of the most iconic distilleries in the world. Each of the four 375ml bottles comes from a long-aged single cask: Foursquare in Barbados, Hampden and Worthy Park in Jamaica, and Diamond's Port Mourant distillate in Guyana.
After importation, each rum was finished in local Still Austin ex-bourbon barrels for at least five months, then hand-bottled at high proof with no additives, no adulteration, and no chill filtration. If I had to build my personal Mount Rushmore of rum distilleries, these four would be on it. Under 300 box sets total. Each one comes with some extra goodies in it as well as well as the collectors box.
