Hi @Oliver , First of all nice to see youā€™re catering to both nerds and ā€˜nerds-to-beā€™sā€™, and let people get to taste a fair rum for a fair price tag. Compliments! That said, I am curious to know through which shop the bottle will be send, will it be [Armagnac.de](http://Armagnac.de?utm_source=rumx&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=rumx-forum) ? I can then consider adding some extra bottles to spread shipping costs! Cheers! ---

Thanks for the great feedback. That was exactly the idea behind it! ā˜ŗšŸ„ƒ In addition to Wagemut, which ships throughout Europe, weā€™ve gone the extra mile to distribute the bottles through several partner shops scattered across Europe, so that most RumX users can order with no/low shipping costs. šŸ™ [Armagnac.de](http://Armagnac.de?utm_source=rumx&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=rumx-forum) will handle distribution outside of Europe (including the U.S.). Weā€™ve also partnered with retailers in France (Rhum Attitude), Austria (delicando), Belgium (Rum Stylez), Denmark (WhikyWatcher), Italy (DalMoreShop), and Eastern Europe (Bondston) for this very special co-bottling. āš” ---

Tomorrow Iā€™m meeting Nicolas in Vienna. One agenda item is an interview for YouTube. Iā€™d really like to integrate your community questions here too. So now you have the chance: - **What have you always wanted to ask Nicolas?** - **What interests you most about him personally or about Wagemut in general?** Iā€™m looking forward to every question from you. ā¤ ---

> Iā€™m just gently reminded of the moment when, thanks to @Gunnar, we tasted something other than nerdy stuff in the blind tasting of the Don Papa Quincentennial I wouldnā€™t find it far-fetched that Don Papa can also make good rums. My problem with the Ā»real rumsĀ« from Riese, Don Papa & Co is more the relatively high price. I suspect thatā€™s part of the concept to create exclusivity through price. But it would be interesting to get the base product from the Baroko or something like that, although I could imagine that would be rather disappointing šŸ˜ƒ Regarding the **Wagemut Interview** , are there any updates about the distillery he wants to open? ---

Will we ever get an Origin from Wagemut XO or at least the new XO 2028 also as cask strength? That would be a 17-year-old Foursquare with a higher pot still component. What approaches are being tried now to position Wagemut on the international market? The USA would certainly be THE market, but it canā€™t be reached through the YouTube pull effect thatā€™s been so successful in Germany. When will the rare treasures that Nico secured from Scheer in the Netherlands be bottled? Will there be finishes involved, or will the spirit come out like the Members Only 2026 without any frills? Wagemut is supposed to get distilleries in Vietnam, Argentina, El Salvador, and actually also Madeira. Weā€™ve seen how difficult thatā€™s becoming, partly due to bureaucratic attitudes. So why not focus on tropical EU territories (especially France, since thereā€™s no language barrier)? RĆ©union, French Guyana (maybe even with the option to poach someone from DDL Ā«next doorĀ»), or even Martinique, where an AOP production could even take place? ---

He merged with Freimeister Collective in Berlin and bought shares from them. Thatā€™s his new distillery as far as I understand it. ---

Yes, thatā€™s the rum distillery on Madeira I meant. The last thing I heard was that itā€™s been difficult because of the administration. If heā€™s now with Freimeister, does that put the international plans on ice for now? That said, theoretically you could also make rum in Germany just as well as in the Caribbean (he certainly has the necessary laid-back attitude šŸ˜). Only Agricole would be difficult, though, right? We donā€™t have sugarcane here. ---

> [@bur2000](#): > > Just Agricole would be difficult though, right? Thereā€™s no sugarcane here. But with the small amount that Heimat Distillers grows, heā€™ll hardly be able to get anything from it. Sugarcane syrup (used for example in Clairin Le Rocher & Sonson) could in principle be imported. ---

Question for Krƶger, but even more for independent tasters here in the forum, once the Wagemut Foursquare is out: How does the Wagemut Foursquare compare to the Doorlyā€™s 14? And how do the two differ from each other, in the product (e.g., pot-column-still ratio, selection of casks used ā€¦) and in taste? Both pure Foursquare rums, both at a price point of around ā‚¬60. Doorlyā€™s is aged 4 years longer (10y vs. 14y), Wagemut has 16 more proof points (64% vs. 48%). I want to restock in this segment over the next few weeks, but I only have the budget for one of the two bottles. The preliminary limitation at Wagemut doesnā€™t bother me. If the rum sells well, Wagemut should be able to follow up with Edition 2. ---

the question that you had from the startā€¦ I mean, now you can calculate the answer from the alcohol content of the respective cask strengths. with a PX at 17 vol% that gives a share of about 11.5%. No liability for any information šŸ˜„ ---

Youā€™re right, I hadnā€™t thought of that, the calculation is simple. With a PX at 15% alcohol, the sherry content is about 11%. At 11-11.5% sherry, the designation rum-sherry blend would already be appropriate.
