Rolling Fork, a Louisville, Kentucky-based distillery, is launching a new small-batch rum called 'Heart of Gold.' Boasting a composition of four lightly aged rums from Barbados and Jamaica, this versatile spirit contains 50.5% alcohol by volume and was created with cocktail-making applications in mind. Decorated with a stunning bold blue label, the 'Heart of Gold' rum can be purchased in all Rolling Fork markets.
"We think bartenders and consumers are going to love having a new option for rum-based cocktails," says Rolling Fork Co-founder Jordan Morris. "Heart of Gold has a great balance of citrus and berry fruits and subtle vanilla with a finish of mild baking spice and tasty brown sugar. This is a well-rounded cocktail rum that can hold its own with mixers and create high-quality cocktails at a reasonable price."
