Samai Single Cask for Australia Cambodian Rum 700ml | 58%

We have loved Samai rums for many years now, so it is our pleasure to announce our very own single cask bottling for Casa de Vinos. 

Made from high-quality Cambodian molasses and distilled on a 100% copper pot still, this single cask rum was aged for 6 years in a single Pedro Ximénez cask under Cambodia's profoundly tropical climate. Unblended and rich in character, it reveals notes of plums and caramel, layered with complex smoked leather and tobaco leaf notes, finishing warm and full-bodied.

 

Staff Tasting Notes

N‍ose: Rich plums and caramel, with hints of leather and tobacco leaf. 

P‍alate: ‍Silky considering its ABV; full of melted milk chocolate, fresh dates, plums and a slightly smoked earthy leather. 

Finish: Warm and full-bodied with more plums and caramel, lingering on with pleasantly subtle oak and cigar boxes. 

Overall: A wonderful single cask rum from Cambodia and definitely a dram to savour around a fire. The ABV, while high at 58%, warms the palate without much burn. 

 

Samai

A fusion of rum making traditions from Latin America and Asian roots, Samai Distillery began in 2014 using local Cambodian sugar cane known for its high abundance and high quality. For this endeavour, the Khmer word 'Samai' made perfect sense, 'Samai' is 'modern', a 'new generation' and a 'look towards the future'. Their rums are created using a combination of pot stills and column stills, with their fermenting and distillation techniques derived from cultures around the world.
