85 Lashes Rum
"85 Lashes is the name of the Rum produced by Amalgamated Brewing Company. The number 85 refers to the proof of the Rum. Our rum is hand-crafted in small batches and made with 100% pure sugar cane and molasses. Our Rum ferments for approximately 21 days before it is twice distilled. We distill the Rum slowly in old-fashioned artisan pot stills. This allowes us to better control the flavor and quality of the Rum. Our Rum is then aged at barrel strength of 160 proof in French Oak. Once the distiller determines the flavor is perfect, the Rum is "proofed" to 85. It is then hand bottled and hand labeld. Each bottle is numbered as to the batch and bottle number by the distiller himself. As with all hand-crafted products, no two batches will be exactly alike. Thus, each batch offers a unique experience." -- Amalgamated Brewing
