This Mauritius rum shipped unaged to Main Rum (the mark MLM0 means Main Rum, Labourdonnais, Mauritius, zero years aged at origin), rested in steel, and was filled on September 30, 2019 at 69.5% ABV into the wine-malt cask, where the cool Liverpool climate in the Plutus and Dempster warehouses did the rest. It was decanted on February 25, 2025 for shipping to the United States. A single cask, so a one-time release.
