Islay Rum Company - Barrel Aged Mini - 46%
Since 2022, a truly unique spirit has been produced on the ‘Queen of the Hebrides’: Islay Rum. Inspired by traditional Caribbean distillation methods, the Islay Rum Company – the island’s first and, to date, only rum distillery – produces rum varieties rich in esters using a pot still and twin retort still, adopting an experimental approach, working by hand and in small batches.
Between Kilnaughton Bay in Port Ellen and Borraichill Hill stands a pot and twin retort still that is unique in the UK. Developed by Head Distiller Ben Inglis, it produces Islay Rum – a smooth, ester-rich spirit that is effectively triple-distilled in a single distillation run. The base for this is molasses and aromatic residues from the previous distillation – essentially ‘Islay dunder’.

Product information "Islay Rum Company - Barrel Aged Mini - 46%"
At the historic ‘Old Lemonade Factory’ in Port Ellen, the traditional Caribbean art of distillation is reinterpreted on Scottish soil. An unusually long fermentation period of 168 hours and the use of a classic copper pot still lay the complex foundations for this spirit. However, it derives its true identity from subsequent ageing in oak casks that previously held heavily peated Islay single malt whisky – a maturation process that forges a deep connection between the rum and its homeland.
In the glass, the rum presents a warm amber hue and immediately unfolds a multi-layered bouquet. Intense notes of smoke and peat blend harmoniously with the classic sweetness of toffee and vanilla, whilst a distinct maritime saltiness is reminiscent of the surf at Port Ellen. On the palate, it is full-bodied with an oily texture, with a subtle peppery spice marking the transition to a long-lasting, smoky-sweet finish.

Companero is Spanish and stands for buddy or comrade. Rums from Panama are primarily used for the bottlings of Companero rums, but rums from Jamaica or Trinidad are also used to complement them. The sugar cane used for the molasses of the Companero rums is always harvested by hand. Oak wood waters are primarily used for maturation purposes.
