August’s Surprise Box of Spiced Rum Featuring No Name Mango Spiced Rum

TRADITIONAL TECHNIQUES AND 100%FRESH INGREDIENTS.

To differentiate between the Faith & Sons range and the new rum range, Filipe knew they needed a new name and design. Maybe all my energy had been used on the flavours, mixed with months of cabin fever, but I decided on No Name Distillery. The label was inspired by a love of retro sci-fi and really helps the rums stand out both on a bar and in somebody’s home drinks cabinet. To call it, a micro distillery, may be an understatement. I was working on my own for 5 years until 2020 when I recruited Jack. We had already met working in a Manchester cocktail bar together briefly in 2014. We shared a passion for spirits and the hospitality industry and stayed in touch after I left the bar to focus on my distillation studies. We still do everything ourselves, from labelling all the drinks by hand, to travelling across the country for drinks events and shows. 

The rum has a velvety texture, some subtle nutmeg, and vanilla notes which help to push the tropical mango to the forefront. Perfect for mixing with your favourite mixer, experimenting with cocktails or even drinking over ice.

Jackdaw Cave Spiced Rum

May’s Surprise Box of Spiced Rum Featuring Jackdaw Cave Spiced Rum

Jackdaw Cave – The taste of adventure

May’s Spiced Rum from Jackdaw Cave creates a taste of adventure!

Jackdaw Cave Spiced Rum is a product born out of both: a passion by Far Shore Merchants for developing outstanding artisan rums and precision distilling with the finest ingredients. Inspired by an old smugglers’ cave hidden in a jagged cove on the rugged coast of the Isle of Man  – complete with a hole in the roof to lower illicit cargo into waiting boats below – Jackdaw Cave is a celebration of the romance, intrigue and excitement of the early days of rum trading. 

Tasting notes;
With warming notes of vanilla, orange, and caramel, undertones of exotic spices such as nutmeg and cinnamon, plus hints of coffee, ginger, and pepper, this fragrantly flavoured rum was created to both satisfy connoisseurs and attract new drinkers to the market.

Jackdaw Cave is distilled from scratch by the hugely talented Tom Read of The Cornish Distilling Company. Using unique recipes, grade A molasses and the best ingredients available, the distillation process is carefully controlled from fermentation to ageing to ensure the rums are rich, flavourful, and easy to drink.

In the case of Jackdaw Cave, the secret is to add the spices whilst the rum is at 60% ABV, when it is left to macerate for a few weeks, so the alcohol has time to extract all these flavours. It is then sweetened with raw cane sugar before Cornish spring water drops the ABV to 37.5%.

A gold medal winner in The Spirits Business Design and Packaging Awards 2021, Jackdaw Cave is also a silver medal winner in The Spirits Business Rum & Cachaça Masters 2022 for taste.

April’s Surprise Box of Spiced Rum Featuring Flat Cap Rum Cherry & Vanilla Spiced Rum

Authentic And Flavoursome

The name Flat Cap is paying homage to our late father who travelled from Jamaica in the early 1950’s to start a new life in the United Kingdom specifically south London and was known for wearing a Flat Cap! We are honoured to bare the Flat Cap symbol in our logo and our name. Billy Balton Mckitty 1936 – 2015.

After tasting Rums from most parts of the Caribbean we decided to build upon traditional spirits, we create new flavours to bring you exciting rum. Also seeing that the majority of household name rums were more legacy products that people purchased out of habit, Flat Cap Drinks wanted to add value and alternative products to what was being consumed in the marketplace.

Our rums are distilled in the traditional and authentic manner, the stills are all handmade and hand beaten copper (not a Colum still). This choice allows the rum to have the most amount of contact with the copper which in turn provides the best quality product for you to enjoy and makes our rums honest, authentic and flavoursome.

After distillation the flavour recipe is added and left to infuse for 5-7 days in oak barrels as this helps to provide that great smooth palate excitement, and aids with the colour of the rum making it attractive to the eye.

Further into our box this month;

x1 @flatcapdrinks Vanilla and Cherry Spiced Rum

x2 @artisan Barrel Smoked Cola
X1 @stratfordsodas Hedgerow Mixer

In June 1838, the Danish Government officially appointed Albert Heinrich Riise as the exclusive pharmacist for the island of Saint Thomas, in the Caribbean, and granted him monopoly status to produce alcohol in his pharmacy. Initially, Albert developed rum and bitters as medicine for stomach ills. However, his rum soon gained in popularity beyond its medical function, and in 1893 The A.H. Riise Company received its first international recognition at the World Exhibition in Chicago.

Today A.H. Riise is history distilled. In every bottle and every drop. Every bottle is a celebration of the accomplishments of the past – and a promise of new adventures.

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

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
