The Last Drop Very Old Jamaican Overproof Rum 1976- 750ml bottle

Spirits industry veterans James Espey and Tom Jago founded Last Drop Distillers in 2008 with a view to bottling a series of rare, old Scotch whiskies and other spirits. The first release in 2008 was a vatting of Sherry cask-matured peated malt and grain carrying a 1960 vintage. The expression was followed by the brand’s first Cognac, a 1950 vintage from the Petite Champagne region, of which just 478 bottles were released. The Last Drop has since grown to provide its expressions to luxury spirits markets worldwide, and in 2012 created a partnership in China with Golden Glen Wine & Spirits Ltd. The company’s profile and commercial success eventually drew the interest of Sazerac Company Inc of New Orleans, owner of Buffalo Trace Bourbon, which acquired Last Drop Distillers in 2016.
