Description
Raising Glasses is a new independent bottler of Scotch, Rum, and other spirits. Lorri and John, the founders and husband and wife team, have collected Scotch Whisky for many decades. Their well-developed palates have taken them to this new and exciting world of picking their own casks and bottling them under their “Raising Glasses” label. They are about sharing good bottles and want to raise a glass with you! Holly has also been friends with them for quite some time as they were customers of hers when she worked in Boston. Good people and good whisky ( and rum); what more can you ask for?
Taste
The Story: A vanguard of the burgeoning UK rum scene, Matugga represents an inspired fusion of distillation and flavor traditions from Scotland, the Caribbean & East Africa. Founders Paul & Jacine Rutasikwa draw from their Ugandan and Jamaican roots while crafting rums in their distillery in Scotland.
The Rum: Matugga’s dunder-powered Golden Rum made an instant impression on us with its notes of tropical fruit and steely esters supported by a gently oaky backbone (from its aging in an ex-bourbon cask). Naturally, we were delighted to bottle this custom overproof version for their US debut. Named after the Swahili word for “gold”, Dhahabu is indeed a multi-cultural treasure for the discerning rum aficionado!
Production: Molasses in Pot Still with dunder
