Their white rum is blended with a special concoction of natural essences that include vanilla, papaya and tropical spice. Resulting in a rum with smooth top notes of local spice, papaya, vanilla and caramel with tones of grass and dry oak underneath.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"user-items-list-item-container\n user-items-list-simple\" data-controller=\"UserItemsListSimple\" data-num-columns=\"2\" data-content-order=\"media-first\" data-alignment-vertical=\"top\" data-section-id=\"61248fbd60add24ac2882d54\" data-current-context='{\n \"userItems\": [ {\n \"title\": \"How it’s made:\",\n \"description\": \"\u0026lt;p class=\\\"\\\" style=\\\"white-space:pre-wrap;\\\"\u0026gt;Zepis Kreol draws its character from both oak and local Seychelles spices.

the Producer\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003eIn 2000, Bernard and his father, Robert, ordered a book on home distillation and began their quest to produce “good” rum. Robert’s father, Grandpappy René Michel d’Offay had rooted his grandchildren’s interest in rum making through his own endeavours making the local Creole speciality, \u003cem\u003eRum Arrangé\u003c\/em\u003e. Inspired by the ways in which sailors would preserve fruits and spices in alcohol, \u003cem\u003eRum Arrangé\u003c\/em\u003e was made by macerating leaves, fruit, seeds, bark and other ingredients for up to six months after which it was enjoyed as a digestive or sweetened with cane sugar syrup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003eWith limited access to conventional distillation parts, Bernard and his father used their own backyard swimming pool as an interim cooling tower for their makeshift condenser, went off to their local supermarket to buy yeast and refined sugar, and began experimenting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003eThey were joined by Bernard’s older brother, Richard, and after more than a year of testing - resulting in both some truly questionable as well as some rather remarkable trial rums - in February 2002 they officially opened Trois Frères Distillery in Seychelles. Soon after, they distilled and delivered their first ever order of Takamaka dark rum.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003eOver the years, Richard and Bernard have honed their craft through their own sense of curiosity and discovery, but also through the limitations and curve balls that go hand in hand with the remoteness of the Seychelles. It’s impacted how they blend and age their rum, it’s forged the role they play in their community and it’s shaped who they are today as people, and as rum makers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Speciality Brands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56465549295989,"sku":null,"price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0002\/3537\/2571\/files\/4BB94E91-6A07-415B-90B2-D8076BD96187.jpg?v=1778773806","url":"https:\/\/aitkenwines.com\/products\/takamaka-dark-spiced-rum","provider":"Aitken's","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
