A.H. Riise XO RESERVE

Founders Reserve 44,4%

44,4% vol.

Founders Reserve Collectors Edition is a series of six exclusive XOs from A.H. Riise. The first three editions were sold out in just a few weeks. Due to high demand, we are adding three new blends to the collection, each with a different alcohol strength. All blends in the collection are tapped in black bottles. Each edition can be recognized by the color of the batch indication as well as the alcohol strength. Founder Reserve represents a highly complex art of blending. When creating a batch, our Master Blender selects his favorites from a large number of casks of old matured rum. Each barrel has its own distinctive character, and together they give the taste and quality we value in this collection. The unique flavors and the difference in alcohol make each edition a unique experience.

The uniqueness of each cask

When creating a batch our Master Blender chooses between numerous casks containing old rum matured to perfection. Each individual cask shows unique aromas and expressions and small variations will always occur in different batches. True connoisseurs will notice slight differences between the batches and will also be able to taste the differences between the 6 Founders Reserve editions with their own unique alcohol percentage.

Riise’s weird and wonderful creatures

In his search for more knowledge, A.H. Riise found a variety of herbs, plants, and animals. Brachioteuthis Riisei is a small, colourless, fairly common squid found in the West Indian Isles. It was registered by the zoologist, Professor Johannes Steenstrup, in 1882. Today it can be found on our Founders reserve label.
