“Family Reserve Old Rum has been produced in various expressions since 2003, and was originally created exclusively for members of the Gosling family and bottled once annually. Typically this is a traditional blended rum, sourced from both column and pot still selections, aged in Bermuda in ex-bourbon barrels. The latest expression, however, heads in a decidedly different direction: Family Reserve Old Rum Rye Barrel Finish is, as the name would imply, finished with at least three years in U.S. rye whiskey barrels instead. Specifically, it blends rye barrels filled in 2018, 2019 and 2020. The rums in the makeup are unknown, although Goslings is speculated to be primarily column still distillate, possibly from Trinidad, mixed with pot still juice from elsewhere. This one is bottled at the basic 40% ABV (80 proof), with an MSRP of roughly $80, a bit on the high side for something without a concrete age statement or elevated proof, but that’s the price you pay for special glass bottles and unusual cask finishes these days.”
