The zero CO2 emission Fairtransport Rum.
We're extremely proud that we can introduce this fantastic Rum, again, for a third year running.
Here's the story. Every year a bunch of crazy Europeans sail the Tres Hombres Rum-runner to the Caribbean, where they load a new stock of tongue-picked premium Rum and take it back on a 2-month voyage over the stormy North Atlantic to bring it to Europe — to the port of Amsterdam, where they are awaited by thirsty Rumminados. And us.
This 2014 Edition Tres Hombres is the 5th edition, matured for 18 years in American oak barrels, using the Solera method (provided by Oliver & Oliver) letting the specific Caribbean climate contribute to its smoothness. There's only a 4569 bottles available of this collector’s item. Tres Hombres is the first and only authentic Rum-runner to exist in this millennium.

What does Tres Hombres 2014 Rum taste like?
The Flavour Spiral™ shows the most common flavours that you'll taste in Tres Hombres 2014 Rum and gives you a chance to have a taste of it before actually tasting it.
We invented Flavour Spiral™ here at Flaviar to get all your senses involved in tasting drinks and, frankly, because we think that classic tasting notes are boring.

Rum is why we measure alcohol proof. To make sure Rum wasn’t watered down, it had to be ‘proven’ by soaking gunpowder with it. If it was ‘overproof’ (higher than 57.15 % vol.), then the gunpowder would ignite, if it wouldn’t, it was ‘underproof’.
Tasting Notes
Appearance / Colour.
Amber.
Smell / Nose / Aroma
Creme brulee, sweet vanilla, ginger, fruits (melon, mango) and coconut.
Flavour / Taste / Palate
A smooth and complex texture, vanilla, citrus and spices at the front, followed by toffee, ginger, cinnamon, banana and chocolate.
Finish
Cognac-like, soft, sweet and round.
Comment
An excellent dram, a worthy "2013 edition" successor. Not cheap, but the whole package (the story, fairtransport and flavour) justifies the price.
