Capn Jimbo's Rum Project Forum

Hi Mamajuana, I have reached out to B-21 to introduce myself and Timber Creek. I have also emailed them all of the needed documentation for them to request us from our distributor (Republic National Distributing Company) so they can bring us in. If you would be so kind as to send them an email and/o...

Several people mentioned that they wanted to try it....one guy even wanted to use it for his pie crust....but havent heard of anyone actually doing it yet.....we have only been selling for about 3 months now.....so its still early. I am sure it will be used in lots of things over time.

If you like strong coffee....ala starbucks, you will really love this. We generally just mix it with a little almond milk and make an iced coffee out of it....but its also great by itself over ice....or mixed in hot coffee....or any of your favorite coffee drinks. An old neighbor from back in Califo...

So, the house in the label is an actual house. My neighbor/partners father purchased that house about 5 years ago. its a 26,000 sq. ft. log cabin on 1400 acres just east of Crestview, Florida.....its georgous. The main living room has 40 foot ceilings and all glass looking out at a beautiful white s...

WE have experimented with a few unique drinks with the Apple pie. our favorite way to drink it is just over ice. My mother mixes it in tea. Another customer mixed it in hot apple cider when the weather was cold. For tastings we have poured it over a scoop of vanilla ice cream....its really awesome.....

Ok, let me take these one at a time. Barrels. We currently have about 160 small 15 gallon barrels and 50 x 53 gallon barrels. Most of the small barrels are full of whiskey and some of the large barrels. The small barrels age out much quicker, but only time can give you the real complexity. I have to...

Our next release will be our whiskey. We will be releasing Florida's first Bourbon and and Rye. We are launching them at the Bourbon, Beer, and Butts festival that kicks off the Alys Beach Wine Festival in 2 weeks. The Bourbon part is March 11th. We will be releasing 3 whiskeys at the event. A Flori...

We currently have our Apple Pie rum at Sams Club in Tallahassee. We are also being picked up by ABC here in Destin and Panama City Beach.....if you go to one of the ABC stores and request it, they can bring it in for you. I am certainly planning to get it into Walmart and the ABC stores up there whe...

Glad to year someone has all of our Rums. Please let us know when you taste them and what you think.

Regards,

Cam

There was a question about our Apple Pie flavored Rum. Yes, we started out by "borrowing" this concept from the moonshine guys.....but let me be clear.....this NOT moonshine. Most of the moonshine apple pie recipies use apple juice and lots of sugar....we dont add any sugar to our flavored...

Hi Folks, New distiller speaking again. We have experimented with many of the techniques and woods available for aging and found some interesting facts. 1. There are many "oak alternatives" as they are called....including sawdust (added to some wines), oak chips, sticks, staves, spirals, h...

One if the items that tickles me as a new distiller....is the amount of flavor folks add, but dont have to report just by "finishing" a rum in a used barrel that comes with flavor from its previous liquids. Most common are used bourbon, rye, port, and sherry barrels. The government has suc...

Hi Folks, Capn Jimbo was kind enough to let me join this forum, so let me give you a bit of my background and interests. I am a Silicon Valley tech start-up guy. I worked for some big guys like Intel and SEagate and also a number of start-ups, but the Valley got to be just too crazy for me and my fa...
