This spirit is produced from local sugarcane molasses, whose fermentation is activated by Javanese red rice cakes. After distillation in ancient \"Pot Still\" alembics, the heart of the distillate is transported to the Netherlands, where it undergoes an 8-year aging period in oak barrels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6\"\u003eThis long rest tames the wild and \"funky\" character typical of young Arrack, enriching it with elegant woody notes and transforming it into a meditative spirit that lies between a great Rum and a characterful Whisky.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eSensory Profile\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"8\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"8,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eColor:\u003c\/b\u003e Intense gold with warm amber reflections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"8,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eNose:\u003c\/b\u003e The bouquet is powerful and absolutely distinctive.
