KILL DEVIL - Caroni 1997 - Trinidad 24 years old - Single Cask - 58.10%
Edition Spirits is a renowned independent bottling company, founded by brothers Scott and Andrew Laing in Glasgow. Heirs of Stewart Laing, Director of Hunter Laing and former founder of Douglas Laing, the two enthusiasts joined their father at Hunter Laing after the split of Douglas Laing in 2013. Edition Spirits has become a strategic division of Hunter Laing, incorporating the prestigious First Editions series into its portfolio. Specializing mainly in high-quality Blended and Single Malt whiskies, Scott and Andrew have also seized exceptional opportunities in the rum sector. They have acquired rare and precious stocks of aged rums, notably from French Guiana and Jamaica, contributing to their expertise in premium spirits.
In the 17th and 18th centuries, Caribbean islanders called their local distillates "Kill Devil," a name evoking mystery and authenticity. While some ancestral beliefs have faded over time, the richness and exoticism of Caribbean rums remain a constant source of inspiration for enthusiasts. The Kill Devil series today celebrates this diversity and excellence of rum from the Caribbean and other regions of the world. Each Single Cask is rigorously selected, shipped to Scotland, then traditionally hand-bottled, ensuring optimal quality control and traceability for a unique sensory experience.
This exceptional rum was distilled in January 1998 at the famous Caroni distillery, located in Trinidad, known for its powerful and complex rums. Aged for 24 years under ideal conditions, it now reveals its full aromatic richness. This limited edition comprises only 237 numbered bottles, making this single cask a rare treasure sought after by collectors and connoisseurs worldwide.
