Blackbeard's Reserve Rum 24,25,26 Year?
Posted: Sat Aug 16, 2008 10:10 am
Does anyone happen to know anything about this elusive rum that has continued to escape my grasp over the years?
I've tried searching for this rum on the internet but there is surprisingly little info about it altogether. According to Ralf's World of Rum http://www.blackbeardsrumcompany.com is the official website for this rum but it is no help either as it is down at the moment.
I also digged out some info of the owners of the company from Peters Rum Pages and used this information to find out the late owners Keith Baldwin's son's Bill Baldwin's real estate website whom I contacted and received the unfortunate information that he does not recall a 24-26 year old rum ever being produced which would bring me to another glorious dead end. He didn't answer though if blackbeardsrumcompany.com is the correct website. Perhaps there are two Blackbeard brands...
What I can tell from the picture on Bilgemunky's site is that bottle says Port Morant Distillery, Demerara. Aged 24 Years.
If anyone has any info about this rum it would be appreciated, even tasting notes. Bloody treasure hunt, I guess I shall be rewarded if I ever find out who produces this.
