A Milestone in Michigan Craft Distilling

Nine years in the making, this exceptional single barrel rum represents both our journey and our commitment to patient craftsmanship. One of the very first barrels we filled when Eastern Kille began, this spirit has quietly matured in an ex-red wine cask, developing remarkable complexity and character with each passing season.

Tasting Notes

Time has transformed this rum into something truly special. The palate experiences an extraordinary depth of flavor where the rum's natural fruity esters harmonize perfectly with the lingering essence of the wine that once occupied its aging vessel. Notes of rich caramel create a luscious foundation, while subtle hints of oak and wine-infused fruit dance across the palate with remarkable balance.

A Collector's Release

With approximately 230 bottles yielded from this single cask, our 9-Year Barrel-Aged Rum stands as the oldest and most limited spirit we've ever released. Each bottle represents not just an exceptional rum, but a piece of Eastern Kille's history—a fitting tribute to our 9th anniversary celebration this March.
