Holmes Cay’s Single Cask line curates rare and exceptional barrels from the world’s best rum distilleries, and this bottling may the rarest yet. Distilled in 2009 at South Pacific Distillery—the last remaining distillery in Fiji—from locally produced molasses, this rum was aged for an astounding twenty-one years, with over half of that time spent in Fiji’s tropical climate, maturing at an accelerated rate. This landmark bottling is the oldest Fijian single cask rum ever released!
