A Blend of Aged Rums

Rated 94 pts by Tasting Panel Magazine, Nanea is made by blending three carefully selected, variously-aged rums from around the world, meticulously considering how each contributes to the foundation, body and accents, until the blend is unmistakably nanea (fascinating). This should be enjoyed naked or in a classic cocktail.

Nanea is a word that sums up the Hawai‘i effect. It means: “of absorbing interest; fascinating, enjoyable; relaxed, at ease, tranquility, amused.” It especially means “to have a good time.”

BASE RUM: To create this intriguing, round and balanced rum, we chose for its base a beautiful molasses-based rum from Guatemala, distilled to 90-94% ABV and aged in ex-Bourbon barrels for two years.

BODY RUMS: To build its gorgeous depth and flavor, we blended in our own super-flavorful Aged Hawaiian Rum Agricole made from fresh sugarcane juice, distilled to 50-74% ABV and aged 18 months in ex-Cognac barrels; and a rich molasses-based rum from Venezuela distilled to 85% ABV and aged 2-8 years in ex-Bourbon barrels.

ACCENT RUMS: To increase Nanea’s dynamic range and make it sing, we then added two molasses-based rums from Trinidad (funky-rich) and El Salvador (mature oak), aged 3-5 years and five years in ex-Bourbon barrels, respectively.

NOTES: light orange peel, caramel, vanilla, Bourbon, Oloroso sherry, dried mango, baking spices, and clover honey

‘Gold color. Aromas of caramel, cinnamon-sugar toast, marzipan, and vanilla with a round, vibrant, dry-yet-fruity medium body and a warming, complex, medium-long oloroso sherry, peppered cured meats, dried mango, and clove finish. A distinctive aged rum that is elevated once hitting the mid-palate with a meaty, sherry-like note; highly recommended.’ – Beverage Tasting Institute

Hunt down a grill and gather your ancestors, because the Ardbeg BBQ Smoker is bringing the everyday cookout into a new age!

This gift pack includes one BBQ Smoker and one bottle of Ardbeg An Oa – the perfect spirit for sippin’ and tearin’. Small but mighty, the smoker lets you surround your food with smoke in just a few easy steps. Simply fill the puck with wood chips, lay it at the back of your grill, wait until your BBQ is sufficiently smoky, place your food around the puck, smoke it out some more, and voilà!

Once your food is smoked, cooked, and practically falling off the bone, all that’s left to do is plate up and pair with a delectably smooth dram of Ardbeg An Oa.

Color: Light Gold

Aroma: Rounded and smoky – like burning Applewood – with creamy toffee, aniseed, treacle and dates. A curious suggestion of juicy fruits, such as peach and banana. With a drop of water, reminders of Ardbeg’s classic fragrance – lime, pine resin, fennel, saddle soap and tar. A gentle waxiness, such as fragrant candle wax, and hints of smoked herbs. An Oa gives a final subtle reminder of the sea with briny notes and seaweed, accompanied by a delectable creaminess.

Tates: A smooth, creamy texture leads into a bold syrupy sweetness, flavours of milk chocolate, treacle toffee, aniseed, orange and smoky tea leaves. Gentle, sweet spices (nutmeg & cinnamon), some cigar smoke, and a unique note of grilled artichokes. Wood is always present in the spirit, gently nutty and reminiscent of a carpenter’s workshop.

Finish: Lingering, seductive, gentle yet intense, with flavours of aniseed, hickory and subtle smoke.

ARDBEG AN OA

Ardbeg An Oa’s rounded and subtly smoky aromas make it the prime spirit for toasting by the BBQ. With notes of thick cigar smoke, roasted tea leaves and grilled artichokes, this whisky is the perfectly peaty dance partner for your smoky culinary creations.

BACARD Black is a medium-bodied black rum, expertly blended by the Maestros de Ron BACARD using rum developed in heavily charred oak barrels and then shaped through a secret blend of charcoals.

TASTING NOTES: Dark in color, light-medium in body, rich and robust in taste, BACARDÍ Black Rum imparts impressions of tropical fruit and molasses, with a smoky finish.

NOSE: Toasted and nutty

PALATE: Tropical and medium-bodied

FINISH: Smoky and molasses

TASTING NOTES 

Nose: Cherry sawdust, warm pine pitch and marsh grass. A nose that is light and sunny. Closer to warm lakeside days than cold forest nights. The aroma hits with high summer energy and optimism making it unique compared to other McCarthys expressions.

Palate: Light and juicy with a good deal of burned sugar and citrus. Back flavors of salt brine and sea spray make this the whiskey version of camping on the Oregon coast. To others it’s as comforting as early morning diners and French toast with coffee. The addition of an ice cube exposes the whiskey’s sweeter tones. With a baseline of sarsaparilla root and chicory, the higher tones of toasted cereal grain, orange peel and maple syrup definitely shine.

About the Brand

From barrel to bottle, Hand Barrel was established to bring you a whiskey experience unlike any other. We sought to create a vessel that was unique, sleek, and unlike anything else in the industry; a contemporary take on a centuries-old American pastime that would also protect the vital liquid gold inside. Once the bottle was perfected, we sought out a handcrafted bourbon that would match our bottle in quality.

There are a thousand small, yet critical decisions that go into making a batch of bourbon.

The resulting product, true in character, rich and authentic, is exactly how we like our bourbon.

Whether it’s our unique mash bill, our #4 alligator charred barrels that impart spice and complexity, or our non-chill filtered process, we are constantly searching for the X factor that will elevate Hand Barrel to the next level.

Bottle Size: 750ml

For over four generations Gonzlez family has been perfecting the tequila-making craft. To this day, they incorporate age-old processes and values handed down for generations. El Mayor represents a legacy of Tequila. Rodolfo Gonzlez is a very hands on Master Distiller. Passionately overseeing the entire process from field to bottle, and ensuring every drop that leaves his distillery is nothing short of perfection. Rodolfo's son Paul and daughter Graciela represent the fourth generation of Gonzlez distillers and continuation of the family legacy. El Mayor tequilas are handcrafted in the fertile, rocky soils of Jalisco Mexico using Weber Blue Agave. Once harvested their hand-selected agave is chopped stacked and cooked in autoclaves, before the cooked agave is shredded and gently pressed to extract the full agave flavor. After being fermented with a proprietary, family owned yeast strain, the agave juice is double distilled in copper lined pots. El Mayor Reposado is distilled from 100% Blue Agave and aged in white oak barrels for nine months (seven months longer than the industry standard). It's lengthy stay in these barrels gives the spirit an elegantly structured and balanced taste with a remarkably smooth finish.

EFFEN Black Cherry Vodka blends vanilla with black cherries to achieve a balanced finish. It's smooth enough to drink straight, though it also complements any mixer with just the right level of sweetness.
