This exquisite rum really sees The Portsmouth Distillery enter into the realms of premium aged rum. Aged in bourbon casks for five years, less than 100m from the sea in Fort Cumberland. It is made from scratch using sugar cane syrup (made on site from sugar can juice from Costa Rica), each bottling of 1747 is a single cask release: disgorged, diluted, filtered and bottled to maintain the 100% organic purity of the spirit.

On the nose and the palate the influence of the oak now matches the bourbon, with rich aromas of over ripe bananas and tropical fruits. Initially on the palate there is an intense sweetness of nutty caramel, turning delicately into rich dark chocolate, leaving a very pleasant lingering softness which caresses the tongue.

The name ‘1747’ is inspired by our home, Fort Cumberland, and the year the original fort was commissioned by the Duke of Cumberland. More than a date, it represents the beginning of a story deeply rooted in Portsmouth’s history.

Supplied in a premium gift box as standard, each bottle is ready to gift straight away.
