Cuvée presentation

A small batch of Beenleigh that was distilled in 2013, aged in bourbon casks and bottled in 2023. Velier was founded in Genoa by Casimir Chaix in 1947. It was originally a small, family-run business specializing in the import and distribution of wine and spirits. Luca Gargano, a former representative for Saint James and serious rum collector and enthusiast, bought the business in 1986 and began bottling whisky first in 1992 and then rum in 1996. After his legendary bottlings of Demerara rum (Guyana) and Caroni (Trinidad), Gargano extended his exploration of Caribbean rum into other territories, including Barbados, Jamaica, Haiti and Marie-Galante. Rums selected by Velier are only ever aged in a tropical climate, which explains both their concentration and the high angels’ share. They are generally bottled at cask strength or just below.

The distillery Beenleigh

The Beenleigh distillery is famous for being Australia’’s oldest distillery. Its story began in 1884 when a boat transporting a magnificent copper still ran aground in Beenleigh, near a sugar cane estate on the banks of the Albert River in Queensland. Almost 140 years later, rum continues to be produced in the same location. The estate continues to use the same high-quality, local ingredients, including sugar cane from the family mill, rainwater collected via a dam, and premium yeast strains. These are then showcased with the help of the rum producers’’ ancestral and traditional expertise. After distillation, the spirits are aged in historic wooden vats previously used for brandy. Aged for two to fifteen years, the rums develop rich and round aromas of oak that have helped forge the business’’ strong reputation.
