Old St. Croix Royal Danish Navy Strength 70 cl. 55%
Premium Aged Spirit Drink
Old St. Croix Spirit Drinks is a tribute to one of the most enterprising Danes, Albert Heinrich Riise, who successfully ran his pharmacy in Charlotte Amalie on St. Thomas from 1838 to 1878.
A relaunch based on the original recipe for the “Royal Navy Strength Spirit Drink,” a creation by Albert Heinrich Riise that was supplied to naval ships when they called at the port of Charlotte Amalie on St. Thomas.
The product is a blend of several spirits, aged up to 20 years, of the “Vedderburn and Plummer” type – molasses-based, characterized by slow fermentation and pot still distillation up to 85% ABV.
The result is a remarkable spirit with an extremely dark, almost black color and great complexity. Riise Royal Navy Strength is hand-blended in small batches and is neither chill-filtered nor caramel-colored.
