Notes
  • Dark grain (over 3 L) added 15 min before mash end.
  • Co-pitching S-33 and S-04 combines clean fermentation and high flocculation with complex esters and higher alcohol tolerance for a balanced, robust flavor profile.
    -Infuse whole coffee beans in rum for 2-3 weeks and add at bottling for a rich coffee flavor.
