A vanguard of the burgeoning UK rum scene, Matugga represents an inspired fusion of distillation and flavor traditions from Scotland, the Caribbean, and East Africa: founders Paul and Jacine Rutasikwa draw from their Ugandan and Jamaican roots while crafting rums in their Scottish distillery. This custom overproof bottling of their dunder-powered Golden Rum — named Dhahabu, the Swahili word for "gold" — shows tropical fruit and steely esters supported by a gently oaky backbone from its ex-bourbon cask aging. A multi-cultural treasure for the discerning rum aficionado. Molasses, pot still with dunder; add water moderately.
ABV: 58.8% (117.6 Proof)
