Description
Located on St. Thomas in the Caribbean, the A.H. Riise distillery combines more than just excellent flavour in its spirits – it captures a rich history. Founded in the 1840s by pharmacist Albert Heinrich Riise, during the island’s time as a Danish colony, each bottle combines traditional distilling skills with its founder’s passion for discovery. Riise’s discoveries of new plants and herbs in the West Indies still shape the characteristic flavour of the premium rums today. A.H. Riise celebrates a heritage full of adventure with every drop.
The A.H. Riise Royal Danish Navy Westindian Bitter is based on the renowned A.H. Riise X.O. Reserve rum and is enhanced by the addition of over 30 different spices and herbs, the majority of which are sourced directly from the Caribbean. The selected ingredients include gentian root, quinine, bitter oranges, cloves, sandalwood, cocoa beans, coffee beans and a hint of vanilla, which together create a unique flavour profile.
