About Holmes Cay Fiji 2004 17 Year Old Rum

Holmes Cay Fiji 2004 is a single cask pot-distilled rum. Distilled in 2004 at the South Pacific Distilleries of Fiji, it's an exceptional molasses-based expression with a classic Fiji rum profile. Bottled at 116 proof, it's a rare 17-year-old rum with only 4 barrels available for the entire US. Last year's edition was loved by rum lovers and sold out quickly ― it's going to be no different with this one.

About Holmes Cay

Holmes Cay is an independent bottling company from New York City. Founded by New Yorker rum aficionado Eric Kaye in 2019, they focus on finding the very best rums and bottling them at cask strength. Kaye used to work as a producer and music composer for film, TV, and commercials, but has also been an avid diver for decades. His favorite pastime brought him into contact with fantastic rare Caribbean rums. He felt he needed to share these with his fellow Americans, which is how Holmes Cay came to be.

Passionately standing behind the tradition and honor that is an integral part of rum, Kaye hopes to bring incredible as-of-yet-unknown unadulterated cask-strength rums to the US, introducing spirit-lovers to the best-kept secrets of the rum world. Their very first release ― Holmes Cay Barbados 2005 ― fittingly came from the legendary Foursquare Distillery in Barbados.

About Rum

Rum history allegedly started in the Carribiens in the 17th century when they started to ferment and distill molasses, a byproduct of sugar production. Most of the Rum is aged in oak or ex-wine casks, giving its color and flavor.

We distinguish between 4 different Rum categories, where white or unaged rum is mainly used in cocktails, while dark, spiced, and añejo (aged) rum are mostly enjoyed neat.

Tasting Notes

The nose has tropical fruit with banana and hints of grassy aromas, followed by prominent citrus, pepper, and caramel on the buttery palate. The finish is long and satisfying with spicy oak.
