Bundaberg Rum Reserve Rich and Dark Limited Edition Boxed 700mL

Bundaberg Rum Reserve Limited Edition

Bundaberg Distilling Company have been mastering the art of ageing rum since 1888 and still age their rum in oak vats that are still crafted and maintained by hand. Every now and then a maturing vat produces something exceptional, rum with supreme character that takes time to develop. These exceptional vats are reserved and closely watched by the distillery's expert rum craftsmen. They are monitored and cared for until the premium rum reaches the peak of it’s character, when it is released as Bundaberg Reserve. This old oak aged rum demonstrates outstanding character and is rich and dark with a hint of oak finish. For the first release of Bundaberg Reserve in June 2009, there were 5,000 (4,989) individually numbered bottles with a certificate of authenticity and a presentation box. These numbered bottles were exclusive to the Bundaberg Bond Store (funnily enough in Bundaberg). The certificate of authenticity came in a Bond Store only issue tube to protect the certificate. This bottle is #2258. The standard Bundaberg Rum Reserve with the generic label (not numbered) was then available from selected liquor outlets.  Bundaberg Rum Reserve was discontinued in 2012 and the higher 40% dark rum finish with a hefty oak finish was no more...
