Compass Distiller’s first batch of its new Hell Isle rum went out the door so quickly that head distiller Miranda Parker had to take a break from bottling the second batch to talk about it.
Parker, who’s been at Compass for four and a half years, said the company has now begun branding its rums and whiskies differently than the gins. The rums that will be blended into Hell Isle have Crosby’s molasses as an ingredient, and will be aged in about a hundred barrels of American white oak from one to four years in three different locations. That’s only partly because there’s not enough space at the distillery on Agricola Street.
Hell Isle comes in a stout bottle that’s distinctly different from other Compass products, and at $41.95, is less expensive than many rums not made as artisanally.
