Heavy metal band Motörhead has announced
the launch of its new eight-year-old Dominican dark rum. Aged for eight years in ex-Bourbon
barrels, Motorhead Dark Rum is described as having emitting notes of dried
fruits, vanilla, brown sugar and even a note of dark chocolate. This is a full-bodied rum sporting a medium
sweet spiciness along with notes of chocolate, vanilla, oak and nuts. The finish is a spicy one with a medium sweetness.
In 2015,
Motörhead teamed up with Swedish distillery, Mackmyra to produce their own
brand of whisky marking their 40th anniversary . The limited-edition
Swedish single malt whisky was aged for five years in new American oak barrels
and finished in Oloroso Sherry barrels for six months.
The Motörhead
Facebook page, the remaining members of the band said: “As with every beverage
we develop, it’s been a hands-on affair with no detail left unchecked.” The rum is produced by Sweden-based
Brands For Fans, whose business manager Yvonne Wener said called Motörhead,
“the most dedicated, wonderful guys one could ever ask for, and true gentlemen
in every sense.” The rum was officially
released in Sweden through its monopoly on 1 December, but other markets
can contact the company directly for distribution information at marketing@brandsforfans.se.
