Montanya Oro Rum 70cl 40%

Quite possibly, the most sustainable craft rum in the world in their B-Corp certified rum distillery. Montanya’s long list of sustainability credentials include plastic neutral certification, 100% wind powered, offset 110% of their carbon production and use water from a snowmelt-fed aquifer directly underneath the distillery. Environmental obligations are considered at every step, from sourcing sugarcane from a family run co-operative in Louisiana, to bottling in Cradle to Cradle certified glass and FSC graded labels. Aged for one year in an American White Oak barrel that previously held Laws Colorado Whiskey. Because the barrel is wet and fresh from the whiskey, the Oro is more full-bodied and picks up more flavor from the oak than our Platino. This rum is never carbon filtered, so the natural colour of the barrel remains, along with a slight bit of color from the tiniest touch of local honey (the honey’s acidity brings out the natural flavors of the rum and the barrel). Flavors prominent in the Oro include red chili, coffee, caramel, vanilla, pineapple, and chocolate. The Oro was named USA Rum of the Year in Berlin and has received 8 Silver medals and one “Best In Class” designation in competition.
