Admirals Old J Spiced Pineapple Rum 70 cl 35%

Pineapple meets the navy rum heritage of Admiral Edward Vernon, the man who in 1740 came up with diluting sailors' rum with water to keep discipline up.

Expert Description

Admiral's Old J Spiced Pineapple is a Caribbean Rum from Signature Brands, flavoured with a blend of 11 ingredients centred on pineapple and bottled at 35%.

The brand is named after Admiral Edward Vernon, an 18th-century British naval officer whose watered-down rum ration later became known as "grog" and gave rise to the tradition behind many spiced rums. The Spiced Pineapple edition builds on the house's Caribbean base rum with a rich pineapple profile spiced with vanilla and a light, tangy lime note.

The result is a light, tropical rum equally suited to sipping neat with a lime wedge or mixed into a Mojito.
