Description

A real Richard Seale rum from 2006, made exclusively from molasses. The rum was provided with a fine complexity during the years of maturation in Barbados, partly due to the influence of the Bourbon barrels used. In 2022, we loaded this rum into an Oloroso barrel on board the Tres Hombres and sailed to Amsterdam to let the sea add even more character.

Now this extraordinary rum is finally on the market as a real Tres Hombres Captain's Choice at full cask strength!

Origin and distillation

Pot distilled from molasses at the Foursquare distillery in Barbados, this rum rested in bourbon barrels before finally being transported to the Netherlands by sailing vessel Tres Hombres in January 2022. 

When the ship anchored in Bridgetown it was decided to select this 2006 vintage rum that seems much older than you might think when you look at the label. At Foursquare the rum was transferred from bourbon barrels to an old Oloroso barrel and then loaded aboard the Tres Hombres. This age-old tradition has been revived for over ten years now. 

Four months of sailing through the Caribbean and back to Amsterdam have given this excellent rum a distinctive “Tres Hombres” worthy finish. Natural fermentation with Caribbean yeast. 

Design 

The design of this special bottle was made by one of the crew members. The beautiful drawing represents the work of the figurehead of the Tres Hombres.

Bottling

This Captain's Choice selection was bottled entirely by Stokerij Amsterdam with the help of the Tres Hombres team.
