  • Rum Nation Meticho Chocolate Toffee Spirit Drink bottle
    Item no.: 22227865479-1106-1972783352022

    Where its sister edition Citrus turns up the freshness, this Meticho variant goes the opposite way with deep, creamy chocolate and caramelised toffee.

    Expert Description

    Rum Nation Meticho Chocolate & Toffee is a rum-based Spirit Drink with Central American rum as its base, flavoured with chocolate and toffee, bottled at 40%.

    As with Meticho Citrus, the addition of natural flavourings means the drink is sold as a spirit drink rather than rum, even though the base is the same Central American rum from Rum Nation's range. Here, however, citrus is replaced with rich chocolate and creamy toffee, supported by vanilla, caramel and a hint of nuts, spice and cinnamon, giving the drink a bakery-like depth.

    The result is a warm, dessert-like drink that works equally well after dinner as it does in a cocktail.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Toffee, chocolate and vanilla, with sweet pastry, caramel and nuts.

    Palate

    Warm and creamy with caramel, toffee and dark chocolate.

    Finish

    Long and creamy, with lingering chocolate and a fine note of dates.

  • Rum Nation Meticho Citrus Spirit Drink bottle
    Item no.: 22227865479-1106-197278335

    Italian orange peel meets Central American rum in this bright, citrus-packed take from Rum Nation, made for those who love fresh over heavy.

    Expert Description

    Rum Nation Meticho Citrus is a rum-based Spirit Drink with Central American rum as its base, flavoured with Italian orange peel, grapefruit, lemon and mandarin, bottled at 40%.

    Because the Meticho range is flavoured with citrus fruits and other natural ingredients, it cannot carry the name rum and is instead sold as a spirit drink, even though the base is genuine Central American rum from Rum Nation's own range. To the citrus peels and a touch of real vanilla, the house adds a couple of secret ingredients that tie it all together into a light, sunny whole.

    The result is a soft, approachable drink, made to introduce new drinkers to the world of rum without the heaviest complexity.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Tropical fruit, citrus peel and lime, with a hint of real vanilla.

    Palate

    Soft and sweet with tropical fruit, lemon and honey.

    Finish

  • Rum Nation Meticho Coconut Spirit Drink bottle
    Item no.: 229106-19799

    From the same house that made Single Domaine rum its trademark also comes a softer, coconut-spiced side under the name Meticho.

    Expert Description

    Rum Nation Meticho Coconut is a Rum with added coconut flavouring, bottled at 40%.

    The product is released by Rum Nation, the Italian independent bottler otherwise known for its pure single-country releases. The Meticho range takes a different path, spicing the rum base with natural coconut flavouring for a sweeter, more dessert-like style that sets it apart from the house's classic Single Domaine releases. The name Meticho refers to the range's focus on creamy, sweet flavour variants, of which coconut is one of the most popular.

    The result is a soft, sweet rum, where creamy coconut meets caramel and a touch of vanilla in a light, approachable profile.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Creamy coconut, caramel and a touch of vanilla.

    Palate

    Sweet and creamy with coconut and brown sugar.

    Finish

    From Guyana's famous Demerara river comes this solera blend, where pot still richness and the lightness of column distillation unite in a single bottle.

    Rum Nation Solera No 14 Demerara is a Guyana Rum aged via the solera method, bottled at 40%.

    The rum is selected and bottled by the Italian bottling house Rum Nation and is a skilled blend of different vintages from both pot still, which gives richness, and column distillation, which contributes a lighter, crisper foundation. The main ageing takes place in ex-bourbon casks for a creamy sweetness, after which the blend is finished for 12 months in fresh sherry butts, both Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso, which reinforces the spiced character. A small proportion of very old Enmore rum is added at the end for further complexity and dark character.

    The result is a smooth, aromatic rum, where vanilla and tropical fruit meet caramel and a light peppery finish.

  • Creamy spiced rum liqueur poured into a glass
    Item no.: 22227865449-10305

    Picture a street in Mexico, where horchata is sold ice-cold from big glass jars - rice, cinnamon and sugar stirred together into something creamy and cool. Carry that feeling all the way to Wisconsin, where dairy cattle stand shoulder to shoulder and cream is the state's pride. Mix the two with rum from the Caribbean, and you're roughly where RumChata was born.

    Expert description

    RumChata Liqueur is an American Cream liqueur based on rum, made with Caribbean rum and fresh Wisconsin cream, bottled at 15%.

    The idea came from Tom Maas, who had spent many years in the spirits industry, including at Jim Beam. He came across horchata, the creamy, cinnamon-driven drink found across much of Latin America, and built a liqueur around it. The result began rolling out of Pewaukee, Wisconsin, in 2009. The rum base is distilled five times and chosen to be light and smooth rather than heavy and molasses-like. It's homogenised together with real dairy cream so it won't separate, and spiced with vanilla, cinnamon, sugar and the house's own blend. The label states 38% rum and 22% cream in the finished liqueur. The bottling is imported into Europe by Mack & Schühle AG in Germany.

    Taste

    The nose offers warm cinnamon, almost bakery-like, with vanilla, condensed milk and a hint of ripe banana behind it, while the rum stays discreetly in the background. On the palate, RumChata Liqueur is soft and full without becoming heavy - cinnamon spreads immediately, followed by cream caramel, vanilla and a light sweetness, while the finish is creamy with a warm, spiced close where the rum finally steps forward.

  • Dark bottle with red label and old-fashioned sailor tattoo design
    Item no.: 22227865407-3

    Named after tattoo artist Norman "Sailor Jerry" Collins, this bottle carries his style forward, bold, colourful and rooted in old maritime tradition.

    Expert description

    Sailor Jerry Spiced is a Caribbean Spirit Drink spiced with natural spices and bottled at 40%.

    The rum is produced in the US Virgin Islands and owned by the Scottish spirits company William Grant & Sons, which acquired the brand in 2008. The recipe draws on the old maritime tradition of sailors improving the flavour of their rum ration by adding spices, and the added sugar used in production means the product cannot be sold as rum but must legally be labelled Spirit Drink.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Intense vanilla, dry buttery toffee and a light cinnamon note.

    Palate

    Warm spices of cinnamon and nutmeg with rich vanilla, underpinned by roasted caramel and oak plus hot notes of black pepper and dark cherry.

    Item no.: 22227865379-10192

    Straw yellow, light and carrying the freshness found only in rum pressed from pure cane juice – Saint James has made it this way since 1765.

    Expert description

    Saint James Straw Pale Agricole is an AOC Martinique Rhum Agricole, briefly matured in oak casks and bottled at 40%.

    Straw Pale ("Paille" in French) is named after the straw-yellow colour the rum takes on after around two months in oak casks – short enough to preserve the sugarcane's fresh, grassy character, but long enough to add a hint of vanilla and spice. The Saint James distillery in Sainte-Marie is one of the oldest rhum agricole producers on Martinique and has kept its original name unbroken since its founding.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Round, refined and delicate with well-developed notes of dried fruit, honey and liquorice, combined with vanilla and a light touch of wood.

    Palate

    Well balanced with woody tones and a pleasant, lingering aroma, where apple and honey continue from the nose alongside a fresh, grassy agricole character.

    Finish

    Light and short with a fresh, grassy impression.

  • Tasting sample of rare B.R.N. British Royal Navy rum from the fleet's gallon bottles
    Item no.: 059763-615-368

    On 31 July 1970, British sailors received their very last daily rum ration - the day since known as "the Black Tot Day". This tasting sample comes from precisely that era.

    Expert Description

    Sample 3 cl B.R.N (British Royal Navy) One Imperial Gallon is a dark Navy Rum from an unknown distillery, likely around 57.15% strength, drawn from an original gallon bottle from around 1970.

    The rum comes from one of the original gallon bottles (One Imperial Gallon, equal to 4.54 litres) shipped aboard the British Navy for sailors' daily "Tot of Rum". When the Navy stopped issuing rations in 1970, surplus stocks were recalled and stored - some bottles only resurfaced much later, some sold at auction to a retired naval captain. The bottles were packed in protective wickerwork ("demijohns") and sealed with wax, exactly as they left the factory. It is believed the contents come from Pusser's Navy Strength.

    The tradition of rum issue in the British Navy dates back to the capture of Jamaica in 1655. British spirits writer Dave Broom has described how "navy rum" evolved from a raw, powerful spirit into a distinct rum style with its own character, largely thanks to traders like James Man of Deptford, who became the Navy's sole supplier.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Powerful, dark and molasses-heavy with a hint of age.

    Palate

    Raw and intense, true to the classic navy style.

    Finish

    Long and warm.

  • Small sample bottle of dark rum with simple Silver Seal label
    Item no.: 2222786539-1069-12

    Sixteen years in Scotland after distillation in Jamaica – a journey that gives the rum an entirely distinctive, funky character.

    Expert description

    Sample 3 cl Long Pond Distillery 2000/2016 Silver Seal 16 Year is a Jamaica Rum distilled at the Long Pond distillery in 2000, bottled by the Italian bottler Silver Seal in 2016 and released at 51% in a small 3 cl sample format.

    Because the rum spent all 16 years maturing in Scotland's temperate climate after being shipped from Jamaica, it develops a different, more restrained cask influence than rum matured entirely in the tropics. Long Pond is known for its "funky", ester-rich style, and the long maturation gives this particular release a complexity that draws on the best of both climates.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Banana, papaya and lemon with a tangy ester character and a syrupy sweetness.

    Palate

    Spiced with cumin, bacon, clove and ester, complemented by a touch of molasses.

    Finish

    Funky with nutmeg and a metallic undertone.

  • SAMPLE 3 cl Volbeat XXV Rum Limited Edition with Rum from Jamaica and Guyana 43%
    Item no.: 22254-887525 - 2

    Volbeat XXV Rum Limited Edition Premium Rum 43%

    Volbeat XXV Rum Limited Edition marks a 25-year anniversary that is not just celebrated - it is immortalised. This rum was created as a distillate of the band's energy, attitude and history, and the result is a dark, golden and uncompromising release, only found in 2,300 individually numbered bottles. Once they are gone, they are gone, and previous anniversary editions have shown that Volbeat fans do not wait. This bottle is therefore already a sought-after collector's item, packaged in a black and gold gift box with clear Volbeat identity and details that speak directly to those who want to own a piece of the band's universe. It is a rum for collectors, for gift-givers with an edge, and for anyone who knows that the most interesting limited editions disappear while others are still deciding.

    The rum is created as a premium blend of four distinctive rums that together provide depth, warmth and power. Three of the components come from Guyana, distilled between 2001 and 2014, delivering the dark base, molasses, spice, body and the characteristic sweetness Guyana is known for. The fourth component is a Jamaican pot still rum from 2015, adding fruity energy, an aromatic edge and a raw tropical kick. The combination gives a rum with massive volume, warmth and intensity - exactly the expression you would expect from an anniversary rum carrying Volbeat's name.

    Volbeat XXV is blended at The Main Rum Company Limited in Liverpool by Master Blender Ian Smith, and Michael Poulsen has himself been involved in shaping the rum's expression. This means the rum is not just a product with a Volbeat logo, but part of the band's creative universe. It comes across dark, distinctive and original, with an attitude matching the music and the history behind it.

    The flavour profile is deep and intense with notes of overripe tropical fruit, dark molasses, demerara sugar, warm spices, oak and cocoa. On the palate it is full-bodied, warm and lively with a syrupy sweetness, tropical nuances, a spiced edge and a long, warm finish that lingers and develops. It is a rum that can be enjoyed slowly, shared with fellow fans, or kept as a collector's item that only becomes more interesting with time.

    Volbeat XXV Rum Limited Edition is created for those who want a rum with darkness, depth and power - and at the same time own a piece of Volbeat's 25-year history.

    A rum created for collectors, enthusiasts and Volbeat fans wanting a mature, classic and characterful Guyana rum with a unique touch.

    Santa Maria 1493 isn't a rum with a pedigree or a distillery address. It's a broad, easy-drinking Caribbean rum made for everyday use – not something to geek out over, just something to have on the shelf.



    About Santa Maria 1493

    There isn't much distillery history to dig up here, and we won't pretend there is. Santa Maria 1493 is a blended Caribbean Rum, bottled for B&K International – so more of a trade product than a brand with its own production. There are plenty of rums like this around, and that's fine, as long as you know what you're buying.

    Production & style

    The rum is barrel aged, which gives it its amber colour and a soft character. It's built to be easy-going – as good in a glass with ice and lime as it is with cola.

    Signature style

    Mild and round, with a touch of sweetness and a light hint of oak from the barrel ageing. No sharp edges, no complexity to hunt for – just a straightforward rum you can drink without thinking too hard about it.

    Item no.: 22227865407-8203

    On the Cabangu plantation in Minas Gerais the sugar cane stood tall while a boy looked up at the sky and thought about flying.

    Alberto Santos Dumont ended up a pioneer in the air. Down on the ground, the sugar cane became something else entirely: a spirit that is allowed to take its time.

    Expert description

    Santos Dumont XO Brazil Spirit Drink is a Brazilian Rum-Based Spirit Drink aged in Bourbon casks, Pedro Ximénez Sherry casks and Port casks and bottled at 40%.

    The base is Brazilian sugar cane, distilled on a copper pot still. The young distillate is then split across three cask types, each pulling the flavour in its own direction. The Bourbon cask gives vanilla and a dry peppery edge. The Pedro Ximénez Sherry cask lays down ripe fruit, honey and old oak. The Port cask rounds it all off with sweetness and a soft, wine-like character.

    Finally, the master blender blends the three parts together, and the blend gets a final rest in a single hand-picked cask. It is that step which gives the bottle its own character rather than a uniform factory profile.

    Note that it may not be called rum. It is classified as a Spirit Drink, and that is not a mistake or a shortcut, but a matter of regulation. As soon as anything is added, or the distillate does not meet the formal requirements for rum, the product falls into the Spirit Drink category. Many of the softest and most sweet-toned bottles on the shelf belong here.

    The brand is owned by Old St. Croix Spirits, formerly A.H. Riise Spirits, based in Dragør. The name is a tribute to Alberto Santos Dumont, whose father ran the coffee and sugar cane plantation Cabangu in Minas Gerais.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Banana and coconut first, then ripe apricot and apricot kernel. Vanilla and a touch of honey hide underneath.

    Palate

    Soft tannins, distinct honey and a fruit sweetness that leans towards fermented fruit and dried figs. The port cask shows as a wine-like, almost syrupy roundness, while a hint of black pepper keeps the sweetness from running away.

    Finish

    Long and sweet with toffee and dark chocolate. Right at the end comes a dry oak note that tidies everything up.

    Santos Dumont XO Elixir is a Brazilian Rum Liqueur built on Santos Dumont XO Rum aged in Bourbon casks, PX Sherry casks and Port casks and bottled at 40%.

    The base rum is distilled from freshly pressed sugar cane juice - not molasses - in old pot stills. Then comes the ageing, and it happens in three stages. Bourbon casks of American white oak lay down vanilla and a dry peppery edge. PX Sherry casks pull honey and ripe dark fruit into the rum. Port casks round it off with sweetness and a light tannin.

    Once the rum is finished, local herbs and a measured amount of cane honey are added. That is the step that turns Elixir into Elixir. The result is not a dry rum you analyse your way through, and it does not try to be. The label says Elixir, and that is exactly what is in the glass: thick, amber and sweet, with beautiful legs down the glass. Bottling happens in small batches under Old St. Croix Spirits ApS in Dragør, which is also behind A.H. Riise.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Banana and coconut first, then ripe fruit and a nutty note of apricot kernel. Honey sits underneath it all, and after a little time in the glass, vanilla and candied orange emerge.

    Palate

    Sweet and full-bodied. Honey and fermented fruit carry the palate, with caramel, coconut and raisin in the background. There is a light tingle on the tongue that keeps the sweetness from turning flat.

    Finish

    Warm and long. Honey and dried fruit, a touch of cinnamon and oak spice at the very end.

    Did You Know?

    Alberto Santos-Dumont grew tired of fumbling with a pocket watch while piloting his flying machines. He asked his friend Louis Cartier for a solution, and in 1904 he got a watch strapped to his wrist. It is still called the Cartier Santos - one of the world's first wristwatches, invented because a Brazilian needed both hands in the air.
