Cooperstown Hall of Champions Soccer Ball Rum
43% ABV (86 proof) | 750mL | 6 years old | 100% sugarcane, Caribbean-style rum | Aged in bourbon casks | Hand-blown glass soccer ball decanter — Cooperstown Distillery Hall of Champions Rum is a 6-year-old, bourbon-cask-aged rum from 100% sugarcane, presented in the brand's patented hand-blown glass soccer ball — traditional hexagonal panels on a pedestal base modeled after a professional pitch. From the farm distillery in Cooperstown, New York. Available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor in San Diego, CA.
The rum inside earns the decanter: the distillery describes a complex profile of soft spice, dark caramel, and oak — a deep-amber, smooth, rich style with intense vanilla, dark caramel, honey, and oak. Six years in bourbon casks gives it genuine aged-rum depth, not just novelty packaging. Among aged rums, a hand-blown soccer ball decanter makes it the gift for the football fanatic who actually drinks rum.
