Barber Lee Aged Rum
Barber Lee Aged Rum is Sonoma craft rum with a whiskey pedigree: a bold 100-proof (50% ABV), 750mL rum distilled from piloncillo sugar, aged 3 years in used rye whiskey barrels and finished for a full year in a used port barrel — and it is available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor, San Diego, CA.
Barber Lee Spirits is a small grain-to-glass craft distillery in a 1910 brick warehouse in downtown Petaluma, Sonoma County, California. Known for heirloom-corn bourbon and single malt rye that have won Double Gold and Best in Class at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition, Barber Lee brings the same craft care to rum: starting from piloncillo (unrefined Mexican cane sugar), resting it in the distillery's own used rye barrels, then layering port-cask fruit on top. The result is a 100-proof rum built for sipping.
Tasting notes: deep caramel, dark sugar, and dried fruit; rye-barrel spice and oak layered with port-barrel berry and fig; a long, warming, full-bodied finish.
