Apple wine flavored and colored with molasses and aged in bourbon barrels for six months. The secret of Rumrunner lies in the barrel. Rich, full-bodied and intriguing Newfoundland Screech barrels were the inspiration for Rumrunner which opens up to reveal notes of molasses, apples and sugar cane. Raise a glass of Rumrunner and let your apples out of the barrel.

Bottle at the cidery, 13.5% ABV
Beautiful amber color. Nice aroma of apple juice, light caramel, alcohol. Lean body; light apple flavor, light residual sweetness, strong alcohol perception.
Nice but over the top.

750 ml swing top bottle. Pours a dark copper with almost no head. Aromas of baked apples and brown sugar. Flavors are similar; rich and mellow for a cider, with citrus and dark rum notes. Warm but ABV pretty much hidden. Nice

750mL bottle, pours a hazy orangey amber with no head. Aroma of rum, bourbon, apples, and moderate sweetness. Flavour of apple cinnamon, bourbon, rum barrels, and some vanilla sweetness. Awesome balance of flavours, very complex and fulfilling. As great as the other years of this cider.
