Product description
The Dutch company Infinity Spirits, based in Amsterdam, is engaged in the selection, blending and bottling of rums.
Its portfolio includes a whole range of series and collections, which - as they say - are intended to fill the gap between private bottlings and well-known rum brands. The rum blends are put together by the master blender Hein Smit, who has been involved in this difficult art for years. The Cane Island series is the most prestigious project of Infinity Spirits and Hein Smit herself. It consists primarily of single estate rums, originating from single estates, single distilleries, as well as single islands, i.e. blends of rums originating from one island. All rums in this series are matured in tropical conditions. Such maturation is three times more intensive than in colder climates.
Cane Island Barbados 8yo is a blend of molasses-based rums distilled in column stills and traditional pot stills. All come from the Foursquare Distillery in Barbados. Matured in the tropics in American oak ex-bourbon barrels.
