Golden amber color. Aromas and flavors of pineapple upside down cake, cherry milkshake, and alpine herbal lozenge with a supple, soft, fruity light-to-medium body and a warming, breezy finish with notes of almond nougat, apple mint jelly, white pepper, and wax paper. A pleasantly peppery spiced Rum for Rum and Cokes, shots, and whatnot.

Spiced Rum

Spirits Glass Shot Clear.jpg
Serve in a Shot Glass
Spiced rum is a type of flavored rum that incorporates a variety of spice flavors. In the past, major industrial examples of spiced rum utilized a myriad of added flavor compounds, sugar and coloring. Today, many craft and high-quality examples are using more natural production methods, whole spice maceration, and a base of high-quality aged rum. Spices used may include ginger, nutmeg, allspice, cinnamon, cardamom, orange peel, bay, vanilla and more. This style of rum is typically best in mixed drinks, as a flavorful shooter or used as a versatile cocktail ingredient.
