The Expressions
William George is a blend of six rums. Four of those six are sourced from Jamaica, while the other two are sourced from Trinidad & Tobago. One of the rums from Trinidad & Tobago is aged 2-5 years in ‘once used’ 200 litre ex Bourbon Barrels and then carbon filtered to remove colour. The remaining five rums in the blend are un-aged. All the rums sourced from Jamaica are pot distilled while the rums from Trinidad & Tobago are distilled using multi column. The six rums are blended in Amsterdam through E&A Scheer who have been sourcing and blending rums for over 200 years.
The 43% ABV is the perfect amount of alcohol to make William George interesting as both a sipping and mixing rum. It balances beautifully with mixers, without overpowering or being overpowered by mixers or other ingredients.
