New Norfolk Drone Riot Silver Spirit (700ml)
Volume: 700ml ABV: 60% Age: No Age Statement Country: Australia
New Norfolk Distillery is anchored in the Derwent Valley at the southern edge of Australia. As the wilderness roars around them, they nurture rebellious spirits including rum, gin and liqueurs.
Their rum is made using traditional techniques, including the use of copper pot stills and oak barrels for aging. The rum is made from a blend of molasses and sugar, which is fermented using a specially selected strain of yeast. The fermented wash is then double-distilled in copper pot stills to produce a clean, smooth spirit.
After distillation, the rum is aged in oak barrels for a minimum of two years, which gives it a rich, complex flavor. The barrels used for aging are carefully selected to impart a unique flavor profile to the rum.
New Norfolk Distillery’s rum has won numerous awards, including a gold medal at the 2020 San Francisco World Spirits Competition. It is known for its smoothness and complex flavor profile, which includes notes of caramel, vanilla, and oak.
Overall, New Norfolk Distillery rum is a high-quality, handcrafted spirit that is well worth trying if you are a rum aficionado.
The spirit was naturally ferment before being double distilled through a copper pot still.
The Drone Riot is a Jamaican inspired spirit that is ‘wildly fermented and pushes the boundaries of flavour and funk’, creating a full bodied, earthy and herbaceous spirit.
This was recognised in 2022 winning the Trophy for ‘Best Cane Spirit at the 2022 Australian Rum Awards!
This one makes great cocktails, and mixed perfectly with bold tropical fruit flavours such as a Mai Tai – but just as great net or on ice!
