Haynes Rum is a Caribbean rum originating in Barbados that embodies a fusion of tradition and modern identity. It draws inspiration from the atmosphere of the Richard Haynes Boardwalk in Christchurch, where the energy of local culture mixes with the European spirit of discovery. The rum is named in honour of the place and symbolises the openness, community and lifestyle of the island.
The uniqueness of Haynes Rum lies in its unique two-stage maturation. More than half of the spirit is aged for eight years in virgin oak barrels, the rest is aged for three years in bourbon barrels. The two parts are then combined, resulting in a rum with a rich body, a distinct woodiness and a subtle touch of vanilla. It contains no additives and is not filtered.
Haynes Rum is 40% alcohol and golden in colour. It's ideal for slow sipping at 16 to 19°C, but works just as well in premium cocktails. The combination of two aging styles and the emphasis on artisanal precision make this a rum that stands out for its flavor profile in both the Caribbean and European markets.
