Compañero Rum

Compañero is Spanish for 'friend' – a direct tribute to the local farmers whose sugar cane underpins every bottle. Behind the brand are the team from 1423.dk in Odense, who insist fair trade and great flavour can easily go hand in hand.

  • Companero Coconut Spirit Drink Rum bottle
    Item no.: 22266-77412

    Compañero expands its range with a coconut edition, where the brand's warm, friendly philosophy meets a tropical, sweet flavour.

    Expert Description

    Companero Coconut is a Rum-based Spirit Drink with coconut flavour, bottled at 40%.

    The rum is produced by 1423 Spirits under the Compañero brand, known for its rum range built on rum from Jamaica and Panama. The Coconut edition builds on the same philosophy of warmth and togetherness that characterises the rest of the Compañero range, but adds a tropical, sweet dimension that makes the bottle well suited to summer drinks and cocktails. The lower alcohol strength of 40% combined with the pronounced coconut flavour positions the product as an accessible spirit drink rather than a traditional, unflavoured rum.

    The result is a smooth, coconut-forward spirit drink, where tropical sweetness meets a light, creamy finish.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Coconut, vanilla and light tropical fruit.

    Palate

    Smooth and creamy with coconut and a sweet base.

    Finish

    Short with lingering coconut.

  • Companero Elixir Extra Jamaica Panama Rum Liqueur bottle
    Item no.: 2227865479-1106-197280322-57

    Companero Elixir Extra was born by chance at a rum festival, when someone blended two of the brand's rums together and created an instant favourite on the spot.

    Expert Description

    Companero Elixir Extra is a Rum Liqueur blending rum from Jamaica and Panama, bottled at 47%.

    The rum is produced by 1423 Spirits under the Compañero brand and is a blend of the orange-flavoured Elixir Orange and the 12 year old Extra Añejo. The Panama portion of the blend has matured in casks seasoned with cacao, while the Jamaican rum contributes classic pot still character. The blend was born when an unknown visitor at a rum festival combined the two rums, and the result immediately became a favourite among Compañero's own staff. The release is limited to 9,778 bottles with a label uniting the design of both original rums.

    The result is a full-bodied, complex rum liqueur, where tropical orange and coconut meet a pronounced cacao note and a long, spiced finish.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Orange, coconut and dark cacao.

    Palate

    Full-bodied and sweet with chocolate, tropical fruit and spice.

    Finish

    Long and warm with lingering cacao.

  • Bottle of Companero Elixir Orange rum from Trinidad
    Item no.: 22227865416-8043

    Orange and Trinidadian rum is not a combination you come across every day. Companero Elixir Orange makes exactly that its trademark.

    Expert description

    Companero Elixir Orange is a Spirit Drink based on Rum from Trinidad, infused with natural orange flavour and bottled at 40%.

    Companero is the Danish independent bottler 1423's rum series, and Elixir Orange starts from a Trinidadian column still rum, to which a fresh orange flavour is added. The high sugar content means the product is legally designated Spirit Drink rather than rum. The result is an approachable, citrus-fresh rum liqueur that sits somewhere between a classic spiced rum and a lighter orange liqueur.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Fresh orange peel and caramel, with a lightly sweet, syrupy aroma.

    Palate

    Sweet and citrus-driven with clear orange character, supported by a soft Trinidadian rum base.

    Finish

    Round and lingeringly sweet, with the orange sweetness fading gently.

    Bottler: 1423
    Region/Country: Trinidad
    Type: Spirit Drink
    ABV: 40%

  • Bottle of Companero Extra Añejo rum from Panama
    Item no.: 22227865416-8037

    54% and solera-matured in Panama, this is Danish bottler 1423's take on an overproof rum that still manages to be soft.

    Expert description

    Companero Extra Añejo is a Spirit Drink based on Ron from Panama, matured in a solera system and bottled at 54%.

    Companero is the Danish independent bottler 1423's rum series, and Extra Añejo is the house's powerful take on a Panamanian rum at overproof strength. The solera system, where older and younger rum is continuously blended through stacked casks, delivers a depth and consistency that is hard to achieve with single-vintage maturation. The high sugar content means the product is legally designated Spirit Drink rather than rum.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    Dark caramel and dried fruit, with a warm, syrupy sweetness and a hint of spice.

    Palate

    Full and intense with burnt sugar, vanilla and dark chocolate, carried by the high strength.

    Finish

    Long and warming, with lingering sweetness and a light burnt caramel note.
