Myers's Rum Signature Cask Collection Thomas H. Handy
Discover a bold and complex masterpiece with Myers's Rum Signature Cask Collection Thomas H. Handy, an extraordinary limited release now featured at Quality Liquor Store. This exceptional rum represents a groundbreaking collaboration, marrying the robust, iconic character of Myers's Jamaican dark rum with the distinctive spicy influence of barrels that once held Thomas H. Handy Sazerac Rye, a celebrated straight rye whiskey from Buffalo Trace Distillery's Antique Collection. It offers a rare, uncut, and unfiltered aged rum experience for connoisseurs and collectors.
This highly anticipated expression begins with Myers's classic Jamaican dark rum, distilled from 100% molasses. Following its initial maturation, the rum undergoes a secondary, transformative aging period in authentic ex-Thomas H. Handy Sazerac Rye barrels. This unique finishing process imbues the rum with layers of peppery spice, dark fruit, and toasted oak, creating a profound and intricate profile that beautifully complements the rum's inherent molasses-forward notes. Bottled at a robust 100 proof (50% ABV), this limited edition single barrel offering delivers both a spirited kick and a remarkably sophisticated smoothness, making each bottle a distinct and highly sought-after addition to any collection.
