Description
Shrunken Monkey Head style bottle
Finest aged rum infused with the most decadent dark chocolate
Pays homage to the ancient spiritual beliefs of the Maya and Aztec cultures
Award winning premium sipping rum infused with decadently dark, slow roasted cacao. Tasting Notes: Deadhead Dark Chocolate Rum with the essence of coffee and butterscotch on the nose, the echo of dark chocolate is restrained but solidly present in the bouquet. This favoured namesake flavour comes to the forefront on the first sip, layered with a back note of Bing cherry and cream soda. At 70 proof, this is a delectable spirit. Deadhead Dark Chocolate Rum was developed by founder, Kim Brandi, in her quest to bring the finest aged rum infused with the most decadent dark chocolate to the United States. To hold this world-class rum a shrunken head monkey vessel was developed to compliment Deadhead Rum's flagship brand. Kim Brandi explains the idea of the new bottle. "The shrunken head monkey vessel housing our dark chocolate rum pays homage to the ancient spiritual beliefs of the Maya and Aztec cultures. Monkeys, as depicted in pre-Colombian legends and art, are often juxtaposed with Cacao. A shrunken head monkey is a vessel befitting rum infused with Cacao."
