Whisky
The Kintra Single Cask Collection is a line of independent bottlings from well known and lesser known Scottish distilleries. Each cask is individually selected and offers a unique profile of the distillery involved. We bottle blended malts and single grain expression in this collection as well. All expressions are at cask strength, natural colour and un-chillfiltered. Always limited editions as the casks we buy do not have an unlimited quantity of liquid in them. Kintra Single Cask collection can be a good addition to the “Independents” in your store. A Dutch selection of (mainly) Scotch Single Malt Whisky will appeal to a lot of Malt lovers.
Rum Collection
The Rum Collection from Kintra is an independent bottling line which showcases quality rums from all over the world, bottled at cask strength and (as much as possible) natural colour and without added sweetening. Single Estate and Single Cask only… As Single Malt Whisky lovers are looking for alternatives this category of rum is getting more popular. We bring these Rums to many (whisky)festivals throughout the year and most people are pleasantly surprised by the quality and wide range in taste-profiles these Rums have to offer. Please contact us for the latest available expressions.
Blended Rum
Our own blended rum created by Jürgen Vromans (The Whisky/Rum Mercenary) & Erik Molenaar (Kintra Spirits). With our combined experience in selection of single cask rums we created our own rum filled with character. Great to drink neat or to use in a mix. Sample Eleven Blended Rum is a blend with a combination of just the right amount of fruitiness, impressive flavours and a long finish. Created with rums from Panama, Guyana, Barbados and the Dominican Republic, all aged between 2 and 5 years. Then added some unaged Jamaican pure pot still rum and a small quantity of older rum, Caroni 19 years old and Enmore 27 years old, to add depth and complexity to the mix. Enjoy Sample Eleven Blended Rum! – Gentle but Bold
