July’s Surprise Box of Craft Rum Featuring IslandSlice Single Dark Rum

By July 13, 2023 0

IslandSlice, where rum and fun collide

Having a craft or skill is a special thing to be cherished, without it we wouldn’t have works of art like the Mona Lisa, incredible engineered structures like the Clifton Suspension Bridge and beautiful places like Kew Gardens to while away sunny afternoons with family and friends. Rum is no exception, master distillers use science, artistry, knowledge, and their senses & passion to create a delicious rum and we are excited to share IslandSlice Single Dark Rum with you.

Meet Sylvester Herman, founder of IslandSlice, a fourth-generation rum distiller from St Lucia whose passion for his craft brought him to the shores of Scotland. Rum is his passion, and his family has been involved in its production for generations. Rum was pioneered by plantation workers, they found that it numbed the pain of whippings and helped see them through the constant heat of the blazing Caribbean sun. IslandSlice rum is produced from scratch using the ingredients, techniques and processes passed down from Sylvester’s ancestors. 

More recently Sylvester has joined forces with Dwight Jones, founder of RumTheShow.com, to create Island Brother Consulting. Dwight is a rum expert and a Rummelier® of the Royal Rum Society and he has been providing private rum tasting experiences, masterclasses and cocktail making experiences that you can enjoy in person at home or virtually. Together they will be producing rums that capture the essence of this playful spirit and pay homage to its rich heritage.

IslandSlice Singe Dark Rum

IslandSlice proudly offers an enticing laid-back dark rum, an embodiment of indulgence and sophistication. The Dark Rum offers a Toffee nose and taste, aged cedar humidor notes on the palate, smooth creaminess with a warm finish. Well balanced influence of specially selected Speyside whisky

February’s Surprise Box of Craft Rum Featuring J. Gow Revenge Rum

By April 6, 2022 0

Probably the smallest rum producing island in the world

J. Gow rum is named after Orkneys very own 18th century pirate John Gow. J. Gow Rum distillery sits metres away from the sea on Lamb Holm, a 0.15 square mile uninhabited island. Which makes it probably the smallest rum producing island in the world. John Gow’s short, violent career began in Amsterdam in the Netherlands and ended in Orkney. He was imprisoned, tried and hanged. Not once, but twice, (after the rope snapped the first time) at London’s execution dock on the 11th of June 1725. He was one of the last pirates hanged in London. 
After re-joining the family business in 2013. Collin worked several years for the Orkney Wine Company (making fruit wines). With his dad ultimately priming him to take over the business. Instead of taking over the business he took over half of the building, installed a 2000L pot still and started making rum in 2017. 
Revenge is a 3 year old pure single Scottish rum, launched in April 2021. Aged in ex-bourbon and virgin oak casks for three years. 
J. Gow Rum’s house style is heavy and full-bodied, and Revenge is no exception. Light funk, acidic fruit and caramel on the nose. Stone fruit, spice and toffee on the palate with over ripe peaches on the finish. A rich and deeply flavoured rum with no added sugar, artificial flavours or colourings.

Further into our box this month;
x2 The Soho Juice Company – Cucumber, mint, lemon & lime
X1 Double Dutch – Cucumber & Watermelon
x1 Witch Kings Bartender Syrups – Dandelion
Milk Chocolates Hearts

February’s Surprise Box of Spiced Rum Featuring Sugar House Scotch Bonnet Spiced Rum

By April 6, 2022 0

Infused with tropical fruits and Scotch Bonnet Pepper for that extra kick

Sugar House rum takes inspiration for its name from the original 17th Century rum producers of Scotland, the Glasgow Sugar Houses. There were four Sugar Houses in total that refined the imported sugar from the West Indies to sell to local merchants. They also figured out that they could make use of the molasses by-product from the sugar refining process to make rum, so there was rum being made in Scotland as far back as 1676!
Sugar House rum is produced at Strathleven Distillery, which is located in Dumbarton, not far outside of Glasgow.
Their rum is made from scratch using a premium grade of cane molasses, distiller’s yeast, Scottish water and their own blend of nutrients. Sugar House’s third addition to their line-up is a Scotch Bonnet spiced rum which again uses the same base but at 47% is infused with tropical fruits and Scotch Bonnet Chilli’s for that extra kick.

Further into our box this month;
x2 The Soho Juice Company – Blood Orange
X1 Double Dutch – Pomegranate & Basil
x1 Witch Kings Bartender Syrups – Hibiscus
Milk Chocolates Hearts

November’s Surprise Spiced Rum Box Features the 45 Scottish Spiced Rum from Jacobite Spirits Co

By April 4, 2022 0

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. 

Further into our box this month;
x1 Bon Accord Ginger Beer 275ml – a classic ginger beer with a heat that builds.
x1 Bon Accord Dona-Cola 275ml – with depth, character and zing!
x1 Angostura Aromatic Bitters 44.7% ABV – a cocktail cabinet without is like a kitchen without slat and pepper.
x1 Nim’s Infusions orange Slices – a Queens award Winner for innovation 2020.
x1 Savoursmiths Bubbly & Serrano Chilli – Nostalgic British crisp flavours with great panache.
