Our Latest Drops Have Landed

During a masterclass with the Rhum Club Paris, the New Grove team brought us some exclusive samples straight from the cellars.
Of the 25 people present, one cask was clearly the unanimous favourite. Not a single criticism, just heads bent over glasses with big smiles of approval.

It can be appreciated in three stages: first, a rich flavour, then 50 shades of cooked fruit: pear, quince, mango... Finishing with mild spices supported by an elegant woodiness.
60% cask strength and, of course, perfectly blended alcohol.

New Grove rarely opens its cellars to independent buyers. It is therefore a real privilege to be able to offer it to you. A project by enthusiasts, for enthusiasts.

Let's be honest: with 824g of esters, this is a heavyweight. To give you an idea, that's more than a STCE at Long Pond and close to Hampden's <>H level. Three of the island's five distilleries contributed to this little bomb.

Here's the thing: we have specs that break the mould, yet it remains very drinkable. Exotic fruits are very present, along with all the solvent notes we love in Jamaican rum, without it becoming aggressive.
It performs extremely well when tasted neat, obviously in a daiquiri, and honestly, it's the perfect cheat code for an Infinity Bottle.

A homemade megablend using the leftovers from your collection. And with this Funky Fury in particular, you instantly enhance it by adding esters and that Jamaican solvent flavour without altering the overall taste.

Just a few word to thank everyone who participated in this project. In no particular order and by no means exhaustive, the entire Rhum Club Paris, the amazing designer Ami Jessica Runge, all the raw material suppliers and their valuable advice, François Marland and Jackdrop. Damien Simeon, Aymeric Constantin, without whom none of this would have been possible. The rum ecosystem more generally and all those who shared their feedback as we progressed.

And thank you to everyone who will make these vintages a success and future ones a reality.
