Tasting Notes
Introducing the fifth release in the Brix Select Cask Series: #005 Brokenwood Graveyard Shiraz. This remarkable Australian Rum has been meticulously matured for five years in a single 225-litre French Oak barrel that once held Brokenwood’s award-winning 2017 Graveyard Shiraz, a vintage named Best Australian Shiraz at the International Wine Challenge in London.
This release represents the most mature Brix Rum to date. One of the first barrels we filled in January 2019, just after Brix Distillery first opened its doors, #005 Graveyard Shiraz Cask symbolizes a significant milestone for our team. We could not be more proud to be releasing it alongside one of Australia’s most acclaimed wineries.
The combination of French Oak and quality wine has allowed the Rum to develop bold, alluring notes of black cherry, licorice, cocoa, honey, rose petals, and a touch of candied orange. Select Cask #005 promises an extraordinary sensory experience, unlike any Brix Rum before.
Only 309 bottles available. - Producer Note
We salute rum’s dark history, but we strive for its bright future. This is much more than a proud rediscovery of Sydney’s adventurous, free-booting heritage where rum was the spirit of choice and the fuel of rebellion. It’s about educating a new, more discerning audience to appreciate the qualities and subtleties of one of the world’s great spirits.
Founded in 2017 by Damien Barrow, James Christopher, and Sid Soin, these rum-loving mates could see that rum in Australia wasn't being reflected in the right light, so they set out for change.
Hand-crafted through small batch production, we're proud to say that we use no artificial flavours or colours, just the highest quality ingredients, native or locally sourced wherever possible and the best quality barrels to create the well-rounded & complex flavours of our range of rums.
We have set out to Reinvent Australian Rum.
