Rum from St. Augustine wins gold

Roger Bull
Brand Ambassador Zach Lynch makes a Classic Daiquiri using St. Augustine Distillery's Pot Distilled Rum.

Pot Distilled Rum from St. Augustine Distillery has won a gold medal at the 2016 San Francisco World Spirits Competition. The rum was made with ingredients used in the four rums in the distillery's Discovery series, all released late laast year.

The Pot Distilled Rum itself was released in January. It's now a permanent part of the distillery product line and sells for $45.

The distillery, which opened two years ago, has now won a total of 25 medals in various competitions.
