Beyond the Label
Centuries ago, when the merchants of Amsterdam sailed home from their long, arduous journey through the Caribbean trade routes, they discovered that the barrels of rum on their ships had taken on a richer flavor and aroma from what they had tasted at the onset. These Dutch merchants, after which Denizen’ Merchant’s Reserve is named, began to experiment with blending these aged Caribbean rums with the most special blends being reserved for the finest batches they sold throughout Europe. The Denizen Merchant’s Reserve is a blend of 8 year Plummer style Jamaican rums and a rare component of 8 year Rhum Grande Arome from the island of Martinique.
