Turn neutral spirit into a smooth gold rum with a sweet caramel finish.
This Classic Queensland Gold Rum essence comes as twin sachets, mixing into 40 percent neutral spirit for two full 1.125 litre batches. The flavour carries vanilla, caramel, molasses, golden syrup and liquorice over an American white oak character, close to what most people reach for as Australia's go-to gold rum.
No extra base pack to buy beyond neutral spirit, and it's an easy one for a first-time spirit run if you haven't tried this before. Drinks well neat or mixed.
Full mixing ratios are in the tabs below.
