Don't be fooled by Banks 5's sheer dress, as this is an old rum that has been charcoal filtered to remove its amber color. It can therefore be used for a cocktail without the rum component interfering with the color of the final mixture!
Banks 5 is a blend of rums from 5 distilleries located in 5 different geographic areas: Trinidad & Tobago, Jamaica, Barbados, English Guyana, and finally Java in Indonesia (with a touch of Bartavia Arrack). Each rum is aged between 3 and 12 years before assembly and filtration.
Banks 5 can be drunk dry, with ice cubes or as a cocktail.
