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.
