Venezuela 16 Yo 2006 Single Cask, TCRL

Venezuela 16 Yo 2006 Single Cask, TCRL

A high-strength Venezuelan rum from TCRL, combining tropical maturity with a softer, polished column-still style.

This 2006 Venezuela release from Transcontinental Rum Line matured first in the tropics and then in Europe, following the brand's signature two-stage ageing philosophy. Bottled at a robust proof, it still leans toward the rounder Venezuelan style, with oak, spice and sweetness carried in a more supple, approachable frame than many pot-still rums.

Serving
