Mhoba Strand 101 Rum - 70cl
Mhoba Strand 101 is a celebrated high-strength South African rum from the pioneering Mhoba Distillery in Mpumalanga. Made entirely from fresh sugarcane juice — never molasses — and bottled at high overproof strength (101 US proof) to preserve the full intensity of Mhoba's pure pot-still distillation. The result is a vibrant, agricole-style rum with concentrated tropical character and remarkable purity.
Founded by Robert Greaves in 2014, Mhoba is South Africa's first pure pot-still rum distillery and has rapidly become a cult favourite among rum connoisseurs globally. The distillery grows its own sugarcane on-site and processes it within hours of harvest — a level of vertical integration almost unheard of in modern rum production.
From Mhoba Distillery in Malelane, Mpumalanga, South Africa — a pioneering pure pot-still agricole-style rum producer.
A definitive high-strength sugarcane-juice rum — perfect for connoisseurs, premium tiki cocktails, or contemplative neat tasting. Serve neat in a tulip glass at room temperature, or use as a serious base for elevated daiquiris and rum old fashioneds.
