Pure strength and tropical elegance
Tiger Shark is 100% pot still distilled and has undergone full 100% tropical aging at its original distilleries – a process that intensifies the flavor experience and creates incredible depth. With an impressive weighted average age of 14 years and bottled at 100% Imperial Proof (57.18%), this rum delivers an extraordinary balance of power, complexity, and elegance.
Tasting Notes
Tiger Shark opens with an explosion of dark fruits, spiced oak, and deep caramel, while notes of dried fruit, toasted coconut, and dark chocolate create a seductive mid-palate. The finish is long, rich, and velvety, with elegant hints of tobacco, leather, and warm spices, culminating in a beautifully dry aftertaste.

Under the leadership of Luca Gargano, Velier has revolutionized the rum industry by setting new standards for quality, authenticity, and purity. Their philosophy is built on fully tropical-aged rums with no additives, ensuring a pure and unaltered tasting experience.
