Much of the unique character of Prichards' Fine Rum may be directly attributed to its production in small batches using our classic copper pot still techniques and rigid quality control standards. The production of Prichards' Fine Rum may truly represent the restoration of a lost art form.
Prichards' Fine Rum is sealed in new, 15-gallon charred oak casks made from the heartwood of the white oak tree. Then, with the passing of time, as if by magic, the barrel imparts its sweet toffee and other wonderful flavors into its contents.
It certainly would be more cost effective for us to age Prichards' Fine Rum in the standard larger barrels. Using smaller casks similar to those used to produce fine cognac confers brandy-like flavors to Prichards' Fine Rum.
