S.B.S. Barbados 10 Year Old Rum 2013 – Bourbon & Port Cask Single Barrel Selection 52%

S.B.S. Barbados 10 Year Old Rum 2013 is an elegant and powerful single cask rum from the acclaimed Single Barrel Selection series from Danish 1423 World Class Spirits. This exclusive rum is selected from a single cask and bottled in a very limited edition, making it an exciting release for collectors and passionate rum lovers alike.

Distilled in Barbados in 2013, the rum was allowed to mature for a full 10 years before being bottled in August 2024. During maturation, the rum has developed a beautiful complexity through a combination of classic bourbon casks and port casks. The bourbon barrels contribute soft notes of vanilla, caramel and light spices, while the port barrels add depth, fruitiness and an elegant vinous sweetness that enhances the overall character of the rum.

Barbados is known as one of the historic homes of rum, and rum from the island is famous for its balance of richness, elegance and complexity. At 52% ABV, this rum delivers an intense and authentic taste experience where both the character of the distillate and the influence of the cask are clear. Like all bottlings in the S.B.S. range, the rum is bottled with a focus on preserving the natural expression of the cask.

Tasting notes

The aroma is complex and inviting with notes of vanilla, caramelized sugar and ripe red fruits from the port casks. On the palate, the rum is rich and well-balanced with layers of brown sugar, dried berries, dark chocolate and slightly spicy oak. The finish is long and warm with an elegant fruity sweetness and fine spicy nuances.
