Mhoba 2020 Single Cask Wr4 Sister To "Smokey"

Mhoba 2020 Single Cask Wr4 Sister To "Smokey"

A sister cask to Mhoba's WR1, offering a sweeter and more pastry-driven take on the distillery's bold cane-juice style.

Selected alongside the 'Smokey' cask, WR4 comes from the same 2020 distillation stock and matured for just under four years in bourbon oak. It retains Mhoba's unmistakable sugarcane intensity but leans more gourmand in character, with dessert-like sweetness, fruit and bakery notes layered over a muscular rum core.

Key Facts

• Dessert-like, fruit-rich palate

Why This Rum Matters

WR4 shows how individual casks can pull very different personalities out of Mhoba's raw, characterful distillate.

Serving

Best enjoyed neat. A few drops of water can soften the cask intensity and lift the fruit.
