seven caves in the wild

Made in ‘ludicrously small batches’ that yield 25 to 30 gallons of finished product, Seven Caves Spirits’ debut is a barrel-aged rum, which won a bronze medal from the American Distilling Institute, that’s rested for six months in new oak barrels.

The flagship spirit from San Diego distillery Seven Caves is a barrel-aged rum, and they’ve recently found a creative use for the spent barrels—a newly released Rum Barrel Aged Maple Syrup.

When the longtime attorney and home brewer launched Seven Caves, he did so with a pantry of ingredients, different grains, sugars, and yeasts he might use to construct a unique base alcohol for each new batch.

Seven Caves Spirits was recognized as one of the top craft rum distilleries in the nation at the conclusion of the USA Today 10 Best Contest.
