Bordeaux Distilling - Urban Rum No. 2 - Organic Laos Rum - Double Cask - French Oak & Ex-Rye - 59.3%
Bordeaux Distilling Co. is located in the Bacalan district of Bordeaux . This urban distillery was created in 2019 by Antoine Gravouil (a young ex-financier expatriated to London), and is operated daily by Arnaud Chevalier who cut his teeth in London as a bar manager (Whistling Shop and Black Rock) and within the cutting-edge company Fluid Movement. Bordeaux Distilling Co. produces a wide range of spirits (Gin, grain brandy, liqueurs) in very small quantities.
Urban Rum No.2 is made from molasses from Laos , and was distilled in 2020 in a pot still and a 6-tray column still. It was left to rest in stainless steel vats for 12 months, then aged for 36 months in 55-litre French oak barrels that had previously contained Black Wall Rye (rye whisky) from Bordeaux Distilling and in new barrels.
