A.H. Riise Royal Danish Navy
The Original Navy
40% vol.
This navy treasure is hand-blended by our master distiller in respect to naval traditions, using several casks to create this ultimate blend. The casks selected for this blend are from a molasses-based rum that is generated through slow fermentation. It is then distilled into a rum with 85% alcohol content. This is achieved using the traditional pot-still distillation method, which results in a high content of esters and a powerful aroma.

Original methods
The bottling of “Royal Danish Navy” aim to be true to the original ingredients and methods used back in Apothecary Hall in the Danish West Indies. According to historical recollections, when the Danish navy was docked in Charlotte Amalie, they received provisions of A.H. Riise’s rum. A.H. Riise Royal Danish Navy has been produced in honor of this important era.
