A Trinidad and Tobago Rum, from the distillery where the Angostura bitters also come from. Founded in 1824, Angostura is a traditional distillery where they produce a soft rum. Because Trinidad has been ruled by England for a long time, their Rum is part of the English style.

Plantation Rum is an artisanal range of rums from the great terroirs of the tropics, founded by Alexandre Gabriel. Plantation Original Dark is a rum sourced from Barbados and Jamaica, distilled in both continuous stills and large copper pot stills. While the rum from Barbados has aged for 1 to 3 years, the Jamaican rum has spent 10 to 15 years in wooden casks. After a final period of aging in a wooden vat in France, Plantation Original Dark is born – a rich and intense style representative of the best Jamaica and Barbados have to offer.
Brugal Anejo is an experience, and to sip it will make any day a little more special. Don Andres Brugal Montaner had one dream: to perfect the art of rum-making. That’s how he came to move to the Dominican Republic in 1888. Currently the 5th generation of the Brugal family ensures that the high standards set by their forefather are being met. Brugal Anejo matures in ex-bourbon American oak casks for up to 5 years. The result is a clean, smooth and not-so-sweet spirit that you won’t soon forget.
In 1703, the production of Rum by the Mount Gay distillery on the island of Barbados was already a fact. This probably makes them the oldest working Rum distillery in the world.

The roasted ex-bourbon casks also have light smoke notes.

Pirate’s Grog Aged Rum is actually a blend of different rums that has aged for a total of 5 years in ex-bourbon barrels. It goes very well in most rum-based cocktails or can be enjoyed on the rocks.
A spiced version of The Duppy Share. This rum is also a combination of Jamaica and Barbados rums. It brings an extra dimension to spiced rums with flavours we are not used to in spiced rums. Where spiced rums are often too sweet or so full of flavour that you can't even taste that it is rum, duppy share does it differently. The addition of pineapple, cola nut and spices make for a real tropical rum.
Kraken are legendary sea monsters, tales of which have been around for centuries. Originating in Scandinavian folklore, according to legend a Kraken was a giant squid-like creature. Kraken Spiced Rum is aptly marketed with the tagline, “The Kraken puts a beast in your belly.” Kraken Spiced Rum is beastly indeed. Distilled at Angostura Distillery in Trinidad, it aged for up to 2 years and is blended with spices, such as cinnamon, ginger and cloves.
Unknown to many, rum has been made for generation in the Philippines, although very little was exported. Don Papa Rum is named after Dionisio Magbuelas, a hero of the Philippine revolution who is better known as ‘Papa Isio’. The rum is made with molasses from sugar cane that was grown on the Philippine Negros Island. A column still did most of the hard work after which the rum aged for 7 years in ex-bourbon barrels in the foothill of Mount Kanlaon.
