Spirit Of The Rebellion

Their Glasgow start-up craft distillery was launched in 2020 by a group of eight friends. 

They make their rum from scratch with molasses, a by-product of sugar production. The 45 is a strong, robust spiced rum (45% ABV) with a warming and subtle taste profile. It blends international spices and Scottish botanicals, with hints of ginger, vanilla, caramel, orange peel, liquorice, and smoked seaweed.

Its flavour profile makes it perfect to drink neat, or with a robust mixer such as ginger beer or ginger ale. It also works well in cocktails. 

On the nose, the citrus hits immediately, with the sweetness of the molasses really complementing it. In terms of taste, it is bold, packed full of flavour, and it really hits your senses. Yet more orange flavour comes through, but it is different to the aroma – it’s like the centre of Jaffa cakes. Vanilla and a hint of aniseed lift the spice profile. Its long finish delivers a little heat with the soothing warmth of burnt sugar and the reassuring oak from our casks. There is a slightly smoky finish with a lingering liquorice that pleases and lasts.
