Tanduay 1854 Rum
(0.75l, 40%)
A step up in Rum celebrating one-hundred and fifty years of Rum production.
The original distillery that would become Tanduay was founded in Hagonoy, Philippines, in 1854. Let’s just say that record-keeping in the Philippines was problematic at the time. But we do know that there was a series of mergers and acquisitions and primary distillation was moved to Manila in the early 1900s and the grandchildren of the original known managers reacquired the distillery and brand through their Elizalde & Company, Inc. The business continued to flourish, becoming a beloved producer of Rums and other Spirits in the Philippines. The mammoth LT Group purchased the entire operation in 1988, which still produces some of the most popular Spirits in Southeast Asia.
The term "sesquicentennial" refers to a 150th anniversary. Tanduay 1854 was released to celebrate the 150th anniversary of Rum production at Tanduay. It immediately started wining awards — eight of them so far — and became very popular, so this blend of premium aged Tanduay was added to the core line-up the following year.
Smartass Corner:
Relatively unknown in the West, Tanduay is the largest Rum producer in the world, selling more than twenty million cases per year. Bacardi is #2 with seventeen million cases, and Captain Morgan is a distant third with less than twelve million cases.

A little bit of etymology; nobody really knows where the word Rum comes from. Most popular suggestions are: Rum (the Romani word for potent), Rumbullion (an uproar), Saccharum (sugar in Latin), Rummer (a Dutch drinking glass).
