Cask owner
Become a Cask Owner at 1423 and commit to sharing the spirit of rum with us. We offer a limited number of rum lovers to buy their own cask. You choose the cask, the style and the number of years you want the barrel to mature. Afterwards you wait patiently and prepare for the sweet reward that awaits.
At 1423 we have many years of experience with aging rum in casks. At our warehouse in Denmark, we have rum maturing in Sherry, Bourbon, Whisky Cognac, Port, Virgin Oak and many more. You will be invited to visit your own cask at the warehouse once a year.
select rum and cask
The concept is developed around a very simple program. First you select the type of rum, afterwards you select the type of cask, and finally you select the number of years you want your barrel to age (5 or 10 years).
We offer a variety of unaged rum, directly from the still. You can choose between: Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Guadeloupe or Martinique. At last you choose between seasoned or virgin oak cask.
VISITS, SAMPLES AND BOTTLING
Storage and insurance is included in your purchase. During the maturation process we offer visits to see the barrel and to receive samples. Furthermore the maturation process can be prolonged upon your request. Once your cask has reached your desired result in taste, nose and color next step is bottling.
ANGELS SHARE
The cask will be filled with the selected rum at an ABV of 65 %. Approx. 2 % of the liquid will evaporate every year – this is called angel share. The evaporation is an approx. precent as it can vary all depending the cask and temperature. Similar will the alcohol percent decrease over the years.
Once rum is ready for bottling it can be done at cask strength ABV or diluted according to your desire. The bottling can be done in 500 ml or 700 ml bottles and be personalized with a unique label.
