Denizen Vatted Dark 750 ml

Denizen Vatted Dark Rum blends aged Jamaican pot still rum with Martinique-style column still rum, recreating the kind of dark, flavorful blended rum bartenders used in classic mid-20th-century tiki drinks before that specific style largely disappeared from the market. It's built specifically for cocktail use rather than neat sipping. Expect molasses, dark fruit and light funk on the nose, a rich, moderately sweet palate with real depth, and a warm, lingering finish. It's a go-to bottle for anyone making a proper Mai Tai or other classic tiki cocktail that calls for a dark, blended rum base.
