Passionately standing behind the tradition and honor that is an integral part of rum, Kaye brings incredible as-of-yet-unknown unadulterated cask-strength rums to the US, introducing spirit lovers to the best-kept secrets of the rum world. Holmes Cay Jamaica EMB was distilled at the Claredon Distillery (now a part of National Rums of Jamaica) in 2014. Made with a molasses base and employing open fermentation and pot distillation, the Jamaican rum spent 8 years in Jamaica, maturing in ex-bourbon casks. The 3 barrels were bottled individually at 122 proof at Holmes Cay in New York State. The expression opens with a tropical and peppery nose, followed by fruit and clove on the palate leading to a leathery finish with baking spices.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nGet your bottle of this limited-edition cask strength rum today!                            \u003cdiv class=\"caskers-brand-info\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"story-subtitle\"\u003eAbout Holmes Cay\u003c\/h2\u003e\n                                            Holmes Cay is an independent bottling company from New York City.
