Preorder: Flag Series Ghana 2020 Rum

Flag Series Ghana 2020 Rum is a Other Rum from the Flag Series Rum brand crafted in Ghana.

This Ghanaian rum from a family distillery that originally made cashew spirits represents one of Africa’s first serious entries into the premium rum world—distilled from fresh organic sugarcane juice in a pot still and bottled at cask strength with zero additions. Here’s the kicker: Ghana sits at roughly the same latitude as Barbados and Jamaica, meaning this rum developed in nearly identical tropical conditions to Caribbean legends, yet tastes completely different due to West African terroir and traditional techniques passed down through generations.

Flag Series Ghana 2020 Rum stands apart as one of the first commercially available African rums to showcase Ghana’s emerging distilling prowess, crafted from organic pure cane juice at a family-owned distillery historically known for cashew spirits, then aged one year in tropical conditions followed by three years in European ex-bourbon casks and bottled at full cask strength of 63.6% ABV with no water, coloring, or filtration to preserve its vibrant character of fresh sugarcane, tropical fruit, and floral complexity.
