Lemon Hart Original 1804 Rum｜ Other Products

K&L calls Lemon Hart the Rittenhouse Rye of the rum world — the honest, affordable, historically rooted bottle every serious bar keeps in the well. Lehman "Lemon" Hart transformed his grandfather's rum-import business into a blending house and began supplying the Royal Navy in 1804; the brand still draws only on Demerara rum from Guyana, and Original 1804 is the classic British-style dark navy rum: a blend of single-estate rums distilled, aged in ex-bourbon barrels, and blended on the east bank of the Demerara River at Demerara Distillers Limited — the country's last distillery, home to the oldest wooden stills on earth — and bottled at 43% ABV (86 proof). Lemon Hart's notes: dark brown sugar, nutmeg, clove, cinnamon, vanilla bean, cocoa, dark honey, caramel, and oak, velvety and well balanced. Rum Ratings' drinkers find a top-notch Demerara sipper drier than El Dorado 12 with more character — chocolate, smoky molasses, baking spice — and one was pleasantly surprised by deep dark chocolate and chili-spiked cocoa at a modest price. Drinkhacker: dark brown sugar and muted vanilla, and where it belongs is the mixing glass — the brand itself points out how well it shows with cola. Honest note: it's a workhorse, and enthusiasts reach for the 151 first. For a Rum and Coke, a Navy Grog, a Mai Tai, a Dark 'n' Stormy, or a Demerara Old Fashioned on a budget, it's the navy rum, at navy proof.Buy Lemon Hart Original 1804 Rum online with fast shipping right to your door.
