- Bambu Rum
Bambu Rum was founded by
David Kanbar , whose wife complained about her rum cocktails being too harsh and causing her headaches. Having been an executive atSkyy Vodka and prodigy of his Uncle's,Maurice Kanbar (founder ofSkyy Vodka ), Kanbar knew it was impurities that were causing both problems, and knew that quadruple distillation and triple filtration would solve them.Bambu is handcrafted in the
British West Indies and is the only rum that is quadrupledistilled and tripled filtered (the same process used for super-premium vodka). However, in order to ensure the essence of the hand-selected sugarcane is not stripped away, it is distilled in tiny batches and slow filtered, which is a very time consuming and expensive process.David Kanbar is also a co-founder of
Bulldog Gin Bambu is 40% ABV or 80 proof.
