Rich and Silky
Hell or High Water XO. Rich and silky.
Hell or High Water XO (40% abv) This beautiful sipping rum in an eye-catching black package takes the signature Hell or High Water smoothness to another level. The blend includes hand-selected pot and column still rums from Barbados, Trinidad, Jamaica and Guyana. These super premium rums are aged up to 15 years in American oak barrels previously used for Bourbon.
TASTING NOTES: Hell or High Water XO showcases a dark mahogany colour with golden hues. The aroma is loaded with notes of rich sugarcane, heavy congeners and wet oak. Once on the palate, it smoothly caresses the taste buds with a medley of ripe tropical fruits, baking spices and brown sugar, atop a bed of soft tannins. The finish is prolonged and very enjoyable. The overall experience is well-balanced and exquisite, definitely a sipping rum for sophisticated consumers looking to expand their horizons. Savour it neat or on the rocks.
NOTE! Unlike many competitors Hell or High Water XO complies with the new EU restrictions on the sugar level in rum.

The finish is long and smooth, simply perfect.

HELL OR HIGH WATER SPICED
Rich, Deep and Spicy
Hell or High Water Spiced (38% abv) is created using the finest rums from Trinidad Distillers and artfully blended with exotic spices such as vanilla, cinnamon, cardamom, aniseed and coriander. It is dark and flavourful while delivering the signature long, smooth finish.
TASTING NOTES: Hell or High Water Spiced shows the dark reddish brown colour of cinnamon bark. Aromas of rich vanilla, cinnamon and nutmeg are forward yet pleasantly soft.
The initial taste is of vanilla and caramel, with enough spice to work well with cola or in classic cocktails. The signature finish is long and smooth.
Drink responsibly and may your glass always be half full!
