The rum — from the South Pacific Distillery in Lautoka, Fiji’s only distillery — spent the majority of its life in the United Kingdom in once-used bourbon barrel No. 21 and yielded just 241 bottles, non-chill filtered with no additives. Bedford Park released it as the counterpart to its 19-year Fiji: where the older cask is refined, this younger distillate carries a lot more funk. It is available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProof \/ ABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 123.4 proof (61.7% ABV), cask strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 700mL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAge:\u003c\/strong\u003e 13 years — distilled 2012, bottled 2025\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDistillery:\u003c\/strong\u003e South Pacific Distillery, Lautoka, Fiji\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCask:\u003c\/strong\u003e Once-used bourbon barrel No. 21; 241 bottles; non-chill filtered, no additives\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fiji\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFiji’s Raw and Powerful Side\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSouth Pacific makes pot still rum from molasses with a high-ester, tropical, funky style that has earned it a cult following — and independent bottlers have been the main way American drinkers get to taste it at full strength. Raising Glasses, who bring Bedford Park into the United States, call this cask an exceptional reflection of the distillery and the more raw, powerful Fiji so many drinkers have been yearning for. Thirteen years with most of that time aging in the UK kept the spirit’s edge while the once-used bourbon barrel rounded it. The label art, like the rest of this release series, is a vivid illustrated scene over the black Bedford Park band.
