Distilled from 100% blackstrap molasses and fermented with a kumara starter, it’s twice distilled in a locally made pot still - a process that captures layers of fruit and spice before a short rest in ex-Pinot Noir barrels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is a lively, characterful rum. Freshly distilled notes of golden kiwifruit, honey, pear, and citrus evolve into deeper flavours of cooked red fruit, Christmas spice, and a subtle tang of apple cider vinegar after its barrel rest. Bold, experimental, and distinctly New Zealand, it’s an exciting debut from Bayside Rum Co.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eGolden kiwifruit, honey, and citrus upfront, developing into cooked red fruit, Christmas spice, and a gentle tang on the finish.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 42%\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVolume:\u003c\/strong\u003e 700ml\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry:\u003c\/strong\u003e New Zealand\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Easy Tiger","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50758173884704,"sku":"31509","price":74.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0493\/0335\/5546\/files\/BaysideThreeMoonsRum700ml.jpg?v=1759447010"}],"url":"https:\/\/easytiger.co.nz\/collections\/bayside.oembed","provider":"Easy Tiger","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
