Old Monk XXX 7 Year Rum 750ml

Old Monk XXX 7 Year is a dark rum produced by Mohan Meakin in Ghaziabad, India, one of the country's most recognized rum labels and a fixture of Indian bars for decades. Aged a minimum of seven years, it carries a deep molasses backbone with caramel, vanilla, and oak, richer and sweeter than most Caribbean rums in its price range. The distinctive squat, dark bottle is as much a part of its identity as the rum itself. It's a rum built for mixing into cola or dark cocktails as readily as sipping neat, and it suits anyone curious about India's best-known rum export.

How to drink Old Monk XXX 7 Year

The classic serve is rum and cola, ice cold — that's how most of India drinks it, and the sweetness holds up well to it. Neat or on the rocks works too if you want the caramel and oak on their own.
