DownSlope Wine Barrel Aged Rum

Copper rum distilled from fermented Maui cane sugar. Aged six months in 250 liter Hungarian Tokay wine barrels.. Balanced wood and brown spice flavors in the body lead to a long finish in the rum which was aged at 95 – 100 proof in the barrel.

DownSlope Vanilla Rum

Slightly gold-tinted, vanilla-flavored rum distilled from fermented Maui cane sugar. Infused with a proprietary blend of Tahitian and other vanilla beans, the vanilla flavor is subtle but well integrated into this light rum. Unlike so many vanilla rums, this is not a sweet rum.

DownSlope Gold Rum

Slightly gold-tinted rum distilled from fermented Maui cane sugar. Aged in oak barrels. One of the first rums from DownSlope Distilling. Rested in a medium toast 20 liter American white oak barrels for a minimum of two months. Mild oak and vanilla flavors follow a slightly sweet cherry initial taste. 

DownSlope White Rum

Clear rum distilled from fermented Maui cane sugar. Distilled in a copper pot still and then redistilled in a packed column still to about 140 proof, this light rum has a slightly viscous mouthfeel and a subtle butterscotch note in the body.
