Pope Rum Coco Spiced is a smooth and exotic edition of Pope Spirits' rum series, where coconut and warm spices melt together into an easily approachable expression.

Expert Description

Pope Rum Coco Spiced is a Spiced Rum-based Spirit Drink with rum from Guatemala, Nicaragua and Trinidad & Tobago, bottled at 30%.

The rum is produced by Pope Spirits, who bring together rum from several classic Central American and Caribbean rum nations and spice it with coconut and warm spices. The lower alcohol strength of 30% makes the bottle accessible as a light summer drink or cocktail ingredient without the intensity found in traditional, unflavoured rum.

The result is a smooth, coconut-forward rum with warm spice notes and a light, sweet finish.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Coconut, vanilla and warm spices.

Palate

Smooth and sweet with coconut and a hint of cinnamon.

Son of a shield-maiden queen and lord of an entire island - Prins Endlau is the next tale in RomDeLuxe's Viking series.

Expert Description

Prins Endlau RomDeLuxe is a Dominican Blended Rum, 5 years old, bottled at 40% as part of the Vikings of the Coastland series.

The bottle is named after Prince Endlau, son of King Hjarne and Queen Alrune, who according to legend was gifted the island of Endelave as his own property shortly after his birth. He was known as a young, brave and skilled warrior, distinguished as much by his intelligence and wisdom as by his courage. RomDeLuxe has let this tale frame a 5-year-old blended rum from the Dominican Republic.

RomDeLuxe's Vikings of the Coastland series combines local Danish legends with rum from around the world - a different approach from most rum series, which are typically named after distilleries or regions.

Dunder is the funky, fermented residue from previous distillations, which Providence deliberately blends into its rum to create a wild, unpolished intensity.

Expert Description

Providence Dunder & Syrup is a Haiti Rum, an unaged white rum distilled from sugar cane juice, sugar cane syrup and dunder on a copper pot still, bottled at 56%.

The combination of fresh sugar cane juice, concentrated sugar cane syrup and dunder, the fermented residue from previous distillations, gives the rum a complex, funky character far removed from more restrained, industrially made white rums. This Haitian style draws on the wild, ester-rich tradition more commonly associated with Jamaica, but with its own distinct, unpolished character.

The result is an intense, oily rum with a rich tropical fruit expression and a pronounced, lingering funk.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Overripe banana, fermenting pineapple and fresh-cut grass, with a hint of rubber.

Palate

Oily and full-bodied with papaya, mango and guava, followed by banana and green bell pepper.

Finish

Long and warming, with star anise, liquorice and a lingering, medicinal spice tone.

Velier, the man behind some of the rum world's most legendary bottlings, turned his attention to Haiti, and the result was a rum aged in casks from the iconic, now-closed Caroni distillery.

Expert Description

Providence Haiti Pure Single Rum 2019 is a Haiti Rum, distilled from sugar cane juice and sugar cane syrup on a copper Müller pot still with a bain-marie water bath and aged 3 years, bottled at 52%.

The rum is bottled by Velier in collaboration with Providence, the small distillery in Port-au-Prince, and matured in casks from the legendary, now-closed Caroni distillery in Trinidad. The distillation process with a bain-marie water bath produces an unusually pure and crystal-clear distillate character, allowing the sugar cane juice's pure expression to take centre stage.

The result is a complex, aromatic rum that develops from fresh, tropical tones to a deeper, more oriental spiced finish.

Until 31 July 1970, known as Black Tot Day, every British naval officer received his daily rum ration. This 15 year old edition recreates the historic, Admiralty-approved blend.

Expert Description

Pusser's British Navy 15 Year is a Caribbean Rum aged 15 years in charred oak barrels and bottled at 40%.

The rum builds on the Admiralty-approved blend that was historically heavily influenced by rum from the double wooden pot stills of Port Mourant, Guyana, in operation since 1732. Pusser's Rum carries on the tradition of the daily rum ration that all British naval personnel received up until Black Tot Day in 1970, and has been dubbed "the single malt of rum" by Forbes for its craftsmanship.

The result is a rich, complex rum, where Demerara sugar and dark dried fruits meet caramelised biscuit and spice.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Classic Demerara sugar, molasses, dried fruits, island spices and caramel.

Palate

Caramel and dark dried fruit with a pleasantly smooth finish on charred oak.

From 1655 to 1970, every sailor in the British Royal Navy received their daily rum tot, a fixed recipe kept secret for over three centuries. When the Royal Navy ended the tradition, Pusser's secured the right to recreate the exact recipe for the public.

Expert Description

Pusser's Rum British Navy is a Rum from Barbados distilled from a blend of five stills and aged in charred oak barrels, bottled at 40%.

The rum is built on the original recipe the Royal Navy used for the daily rum tot from around 1655 until 1970, when the tradition was discontinued. In 1979, American entrepreneur Charles Tobias gained access to the previously secret recipe and established Pusser's Rum Ltd on Tortola in the British Virgin Islands to recreate it for the public. The name "pusser" is navy slang for the officer responsible for the ship's rum store and the daily ration.

The rum is made entirely from natural ingredients with no added flavourings, built on a blend from five different stills, including the world's last remaining wooden pot still.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Classic Demerara character with brown sugar and molasses.

Palate

Leather, tobacco, dried sultanas, nutmeg, clove and cinnamon.

Before modern hydrometers existed, the British Navy tested rum strength by pouring it over gunpowder and lighting it. If the powder still ignited with a steady blue flame, the strength was correct. Gunpowder Proof is Pusser's tribute to that exact strength.

Expert Description

Pusser's Gunpowder Proof is a Rum from Barbados and the British Virgin Islands, bottled at the original admiralty strength of 54.5%.

The rum is built on the same historic recipe as the house's standard British Navy expression, but is bottled at the precise "gunpowder proof" strength the navy used for its gunpowder test, back when alcohol meters didn't yet exist. The blend follows the admiralty's original recipe, as used until the Royal Navy officially discontinued the daily rum tot on 31 July 1970.

The higher strength gives a more concentrated flavour experience than the standard expression, with a deeper, more warming character that underscores the rum's roots as a spirit built to hold up on a ship for months at a time.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Pungent molasses, treacle, caramel, honey and vanilla, complemented by oak, cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger.

Palate

Full-bodied and robust with caramel, banana bread, spice cake and roasted nuts.

Gunpowder and rum share a long, common history in the British Navy - this release is even named "Gunpowder Proof" after the old method of testing a rum's strength by igniting gunpowder soaked in it.

Expert Description

Pusser's Gunpowder Proof Spiced British Navy Rum is a spiced Rum from Guyana, bottled at a full 54.5%.

Pusser's is built on the original recipe used by the Royal Navy for its daily rum rations until 1970, when the tradition was stopped. This release is spiced with selected spices on top of the powerful Guyanese rum base and bottled at "gunpowder proof" - the old strength at which the rum could ignite gunpowder if spilled on it, a simple but effective way to test alcohol content before hydrometers became common on board.

The name Pusser's is slang for "purser", the officer responsible for issuing the navy's rum rations - a duty that made the name a fixed part of British naval history.

There is navy rum, and then there is Black Strap. Pusser's Night Watch takes the classic British navy style and turns up the darkness with a dose of some of the world's finest blackstrap molasses.

Expert Description

Pusser's Rum Night Watch Black Strap is a Blended Rum from Guyana and the USA, bottled at 40% with no added colour.

151 is the number that gives the bottle its name, a reference to the old British navy's overproof standard, back when rum was still part of sailors' daily ration.

Expert Description

Pusser's Select Aged 151 is a Guyana Rum, a blend from Pusser's Rum, aged a minimum of 3 years in ex-bourbon casks and bottled at cask strength, 75.5%.

The rum is based on distillate from Guyanese molasses, including from the famous Port Mourant wooden double pot still, one of the last of its kind still in operation. Select Aged 151 closely follows the Admiralty's historic regulations for the official navy rum ration, which was issued to British sailors up until 1970, when the tradition was finally abolished. Pusser's Rum later took over the rights to continue the recipe and the name.

The style is intense and powerful, with a deep, dark sweetness carrying the entire historic overproof heritage forward.

Pusser's famous navy recipe meets the spice cabinet. The Spiced edition builds on the original British Navy heritage, layering vanilla and warm spice on top of the molasses weight.

Expert Description

Pusser's Spiced British Navy is a spiced Premium Spirit Drink based on Pusser's classic navy rum recipe and bottled at 37.5%.

The base is the same molasses-based rum blend Pusser's has produced since 1655, when the British Royal Navy issued sailors their daily rum ration, a tradition that only ended in 1970. Pusser's has preserved the original recipe and, in this edition, adds natural spices such as vanilla, cinnamon and a hint of nutmeg, giving the drink a sweeter, more approachable profile than the classic British Navy expression.

That makes the Spiced edition a natural bridge between the historic navy rum's heavy molasses character and a modern spiced rum style.

Rammstein was founded in 1994 and is known for its theatrical concerts and pyrotechnic shows, an energy that in a way is reflected in the spiced, smoky character of the band's rum.

See our full range of Rammstein Rum

The Rammstein name is known from the stage, but behind the bottle lies a very different craft - a Caribbean blend, finished off in ex-cognac casks.

Expert Description

Rammstein Limited Edition Cognac Cask Finish is a Rum from Jamaica, Guyana and Trinidad, up to 12 years old with a finishing period on ex-cognac casks for 12 months, bottled at 46%.

The rum is a blend of distillates from three of the Caribbean's most respected rum-producing countries. The base is aged up to 12 years, after which it is moved onto ex-cognac casks for a further 12 months. The cognac casks give the rum a softer, more grape-sweet character on top of the powerful, molasses-heavy base, particularly from Jamaica and Guyana. The release is limited to 5,800 bottles.

The name is a nod to the German rock band, but the contents are pure Caribbean rum craftsmanship with no further connection to the music.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Molasses, dried fruit and a touch of grape sweetness from the cognac casks.

Palate

Powerful and full-bodied with caramel, spice and dark fruit.

Finish

Long, warm and slightly sweet.

Razel's Banana Bread Rum tastes just as the name promises: sweet, freshly baked banana cake meets rum in a bottle that doesn't take itself too seriously.

Expert Description

Razels Rum Company Banana Bread is a Rum-based Spirit Drink with banana bread flavour, bottled at 38.1%.

The rum is produced by Razel's Rum Treats, who specialise in flavoured rum releases with dessert themes such as banana bread, peanut butter and choco brownie. The Banana Bread edition is composed to recreate the taste of freshly baked banana bread with warm baking spice notes, and the smaller 50cl bottle size underlines the product's character as a flavour experience rather than a traditional, unflavoured rum.

The result is a sweet, dessert-like rum, where ripe banana and caramel meet a lightly cinnamon-spiced finish.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Ripe banana, caramel and warm baking spices.

Palate

Sweet and creamy with banana, brown sugar and a hint of cinnamon.

Finish

Short and sweet with lingering banana.

Taiwan's first rum distillery sends its cane juice through 15 days of dunder fermentation and two long distillations, before it lands in a brand-new, heavily charred American oak cask called White Alligator.

Expert Description

Renaissance 2018 White Alligator Single Cask is a Taiwan Rum, distilled from Taiwanese sugar cane molasses and aged 3 years in a new American oak cask, bottled at 64.8%.

Renaissance Distillery, founded in 2017 by Olivier Caen and Linya Chiou, was the first rum distillery in Taiwan and has since built a name for high-ester, intense rum styles. This release undergoes a 15-day fermentation, where dunder is added to boost ester content, followed by two pot still distillations, first for 7 hours, then for 13 hours. The name White Alligator refers to the brand-new American oak cask with heavy char, where the characteristic cracked surface resembles alligator skin. Only 205 bottles were drawn from this single cask.

The result is an intense, high-ester rum with pronounced fruitiness and a powerful, spiced wood depth from the new cask.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Densely sweet with raisin, caramel, cinnamon and clove, plus plum juice, port wine and blackberry jam.

Palate

Intense and full-bodied with strawberry and papaya, toasted spice and prominent oak.

Finish

Long with cacao nibs and persistent wood depth from the new, heavily charred cask.

Renegade grows its own sugarcane on its fields in Grenada, and every bottle of Études is a study in what a single cane variety can do for a rum.

Expert Description

Renegade Cane Rum Etudes Pearls is a Grenadian Agricole-style Rum distilled on a pot still and bottled at 55%.

The rum is distilled from fresh sugarcane juice of the Yellow Lady variety, grown on Renegade Rum Distillery's own fields in Grenada. After distillation, the rum matures in a combination of 50% first-fill American oak, 32% virgin American oak and 18% premium French oak, giving it a beautiful amber colour and increased aromatic depth. The Études series is Renegade's study of single-varietal sugarcane, with Pearls representing the Yellow Lady grape specifically.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Green and vegetal with sugarcane, olive and fermented tones, carried by toffee sweetness and spicy oak.

Palate

Coconut, oak and a distinct briny, salty character give a wild and intriguing expression, while the attack is sweet and spicy with dark cinnamon and a touch of cooked artichoke.

Finish

Spicy tones and a full-bodied texture linger, with notes of honey, vanilla and cardamom.

Same farm, same sugar cane, but a completely different voice, column distillation tightens things up and lets the Dunfermline farm's character speak in a cleaner, more focused language than its pot still sibling.

Expert Description

Renegade Single Farm Origin Pre Cask Column Still Dunfermline C1 is a Grenada Rum, distilled from fresh sugar cane juice from the Dunfermline farm on column stills and bottled unaged at 50%.

This is the column-distilled edition of Renegade's Dunfermline farm, the only truly inland farm the distillery works with, known for its Lacalome Red cane variety and its unusually powerful, grounded character. Where the pot still version delivers a thick and chewy profile, column distillation streamlines the distillate into a cleaner, more precise expression of the farm's terroir, without losing the mineral depth that defines the site.

The result is a clear, focused unaged rum that shows a different facet of the same farm compared to its pot still sibling.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Clean and green sugar cane with a light mineral undertone and a hint of citrus.

Palate

Streamlined and clear with distinct cane sweetness, less thick than the pot still edition but equally intense.

Finish

Fresh and clean with a lingering mineral character from the inland farm.

Where its sister release Old Bacolet sources its cane from the historic field of the same name, this bottle comes from the neighbouring New Bacolet, a different soil and a different flavour.

Expert Description

Renegade Single Farm Origin Pre Cask New Bacolet is a Grenada Rum, an unaged pot still rum distilled from fresh sugar cane juice from a single field, New Bacolet, bottled at 50%.

As with the house's other Pre Cask releases, the aim is to show how each individual field on Renegade's terroir map leaves a distinct mark on the finished distillate. New Bacolet sits close to Old Bacolet, but the soil conditions and microclimate differ, giving the rum a fresher, more floral profile than its sister from the clay-rich flood plain.

The result is a clean, delicate rum with notes of ripe stone fruit and a light salty undertone, more reminiscent of a quality white wine than a traditional rum.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Fresh and floral with apricot, peach and daisies, plus sweet, tart cherries.

Palate

Balanced between light salinity and a bitter, olive-like aromatic profile.

Finish

Medium length with cherries, a hint of vanilla and citrus fruit.

New Bacolet and Old Bacolet lie side by side in Grenada, but Renegade's philosophy of terroir means that even neighbouring fields can produce markedly different rums, depending on soil, drainage and local microclimate.

Mark Reynier, the man behind Bruichladdich and Waterford, built a distillery in Grenada with the same philosophy he's known for in the whisky world: terroir is everything.

Expert Description

Renegade Single Farm Origin Pre Cask Old Bacolet is a Grenada Rum, an unaged pot still rum distilled from fresh sugar cane juice from a single farm, Old Bacolet, harvested in 2020 and bottled at 50%.

Renegade Rum Distillery was founded by Mark Reynier, former owner of Bruichladdich and founder of Waterford Distillery, who brought his whisky philosophy of terroir to Grenada. The "Pre Cask" releases show the rum as it is straight from the still, without cask influence, to highlight how a single farm's soil, climate and location shape the flavour. Old Bacolet sits between two rivers on a clay-rich flood plain, a location that Renegade says has a huge influence on the finished distillate.

The result is a fresh, vegetal rum that shows the pure character of the sugar cane without wood's interference.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Fresh sugar cane, sweet and vegetal, with powerful herbs, liquorice and a hint of charred grass.

Palate

Light and crisp with pear and summer fruit, a touch of limey citrus and a hint of pepper.

Finish

Fresh with rubbery tones, minty herbs and warming cloves.

From a field called "Grapefruit" on the Flats terroir comes this release, where the elegant Yellow Lady cane variety gives the rum an almost oily fullness.

Expert Description

Renegade Single Farm Origin Pre Cask Pearls is a Grenada Rum, an unaged pot still rum distilled from fresh sugar cane juice of the Yellow Lady variety from a single field in the Pearls area, bottled at 50%.

Like the other Pre Cask releases from Renegade Rum Distillery, this bottle shows the rum straight from the still without cask influence, letting the field's pure character shine through. The cane was harvested from the field locally known as "Grapefruit", located on the Flats terroir, one of the areas Renegade tracks most closely in its work mapping how soil and location shape flavour. Only 1,632 bottles of this limited release were produced.

The result is a clear, oily and full-bodied rum with a distinct olive and pepper character reminiscent of a well-made agricole from Martinique.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Fresh sugar cane, olive and citrus, with a pronounced vegetal freshness.

Palate

Cane-forward and fresh with vegetal tones and grass, closed by a distinct bitterness.

Finish

Complex with olive-like undertones and a spicy peppery kick.

Mark Reynier, the man behind the Waterford distillery in Ireland, moved his terroir obsession to Grenada and now lets the cane from a single mountain farm speak entirely for itself, with no cask ageing at all.

Expert Description

Renegade Single Farm Origin Pre Cask Pot Still Dunfermline P1 is a Grenada Rum, distilled from fresh sugar cane juice from the Dunfermline farm and bottled unaged at 50%.

Renegade Rum Distillery was founded in 2015 by Mark Reynier, who previously led the acclaimed Waterford distillery in Ireland and made terroir a central concept in whisky. On Grenada, he applies the same philosophy to rum, where the Pre Cask series, launched in winter 2021, highlights unaged rum from single farms to show the cane's pure character without cask influence. Dunfermline is the only truly inland farm the distillery works with, situated on the slopes of the St Andrews mountains in northeastern Grenada, and differs from the more coastal fields by delivering big, bold flavours.

The result is a chewy and remarkably complex unaged rum that shows the cane's raw power without filter.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Fresh and green sugar cane with earthy, mineral tones from the inland farm.

Palate

Chewy and complex with intense cane sweetness and a distinct, grounded character.

Finish

Fresh and lingering with raw cane power that lives on long after each sip.
