Capricorn Tropic of rum is as real as it gets. Paying homage to our founding town of Rockhampton, on the Tropic of Capricorn.

Capricorn Tropic of Rum is pot-distilled from QLD molasses and aged first in American oak barrels before being meticulously blended and further matured in an American oak Fodre. This Rum offers a complex and refined tasting experience. It presents a deep mahogany hue and greets the nose with inviting aromas of caramel, molasses, sawdust and oak with slight hints of ripe tropical fruits and berries. The palate is velvety smooth, unveiling more flavours of vanilla, tobacco and burnt sugar.

The finish is lingering and warm, with oak spices, and a delicate smokiness, complemented by the American oak's nuanced woodiness and a touch of dried fruit sweetness.  Capricorn Aged Rum embodies the artistry of dual-wood ageing, delivering a harmonious balance of flavours that captivates from first sip to last.
