Ondjaba The Namibian Whisky Rum Cask Finish is an exceptional whisky from Namibia, combining regional ingredients with multi-stage cask maturation. It is produced by the Erongo Mountain Winery and is based on a triple-grain recipe, which includes mahangu – a type of pearl millet native to Namibia. A particularly unusual aspect is the drying of the grain over burning elephant dung, which is used as a regional substitute for traditional peat and imparts a distinctive smoky character to the distillate. Following multiple distillations, the whisky begins its maturation in virgin oak and refill casks, before being further refined through a final rum cask finish.


Namibia’s warm and dry climate provides the unique setting for cask maturation, making Ondjaba a distinctive alternative to whiskies from traditional producing countries. In the case of the Ondjaba Rum Cask Finish, the influence of the various oak casks is combined with the additional character imparted by the rum cask, resulting in a blend of smoke, fruit and sweet, spicy cask notes. The whisky is bottled at 46% in a 0.7-litre bottle and, according to the product information provided, is unfiltered and contains no added colourings. The combination of Mahangu, elephant dung smoke, triple-grain whisky and a rum cask finish makes this Namibian bottling particularly appealing to connoisseurs of unusual international whiskies.
