<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nLet’s start with a classic – Captain Morgan. It’s the main spiced rum you’ll spot in Wetherspoons up and down the country, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t taste amazing. Promising a “harmonious blend of clove and caramel notes,” this triple-distilled rum is matured in charred American Oak barrels to develop its distinctive, golden flavour. It goes well as a classic rum and Coke, or great with ginger ale for an extra spicy boost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This rum is left to rest in old oak barrels until it emerges as a smooth rum with “a hint of sweet spice.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n Red Leg recommend mixing this rum into a cocktail, and I personally love the ‘Apple Shack’ – a double shot of Red Leg, mixed with 150ml ginger beer, 150ml cloudy apple juice, 10ml cinnamon syrup and a couple of wedges of lime. It’s the perfect combination of sweet and spicy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Want to try?

To make, simply mix together 50ml Dead Man’s Fingers Spiced Rum, 25ml of lime juice, 60ml ginger beer, 40ml mango juice, and two scooped out passionfruit, then garnish with more passionfruit and some fresh ginger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Want to try?

Richly flavoured with cinnamon, ginger, clove, star anise, vanilla, honey, nutmeg, orange, lemon and coconut, you’ll go on a journey of taste with this triple-distilled rum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It’s crafted using “naturally filtered virgin rainforest water,” and made with “perfectly ripened, hand selected sugar cane,” so you know you’re getting the best. Ideally, serve this rum neat or on the rocks so you can enjoy the full flavour profile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Want to try?

An amber spiced rum, bursting with flavours such as vanilla, banana and coconut with notes of aged rum and wood, this soft, sweet and fruity rum is simply delicious.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It’s also beautifully presented in a pure black bottle, so will make a great addition to any liquor cabinet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Want to try?

Spiced with nutmeg, orange-peel and cloves, plus a hint of vanilla, it’s a Caribbean rum with a wide flavour profile. It’s also one for the history buffs: the name ‘Lugger Rum’ originates from the name given to the fishing boats that would have been used to smuggle contraband into Lyme Bay in the 18th Century.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Again, it’s got a really cool bottle, so will stand out amongst your spirit collection!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Want to try?

It tastes great neat, on the rocks, or mixed into a cocktail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Want to try?

Red Leg use the pineapple perfectly – combining “syrupy, caramelised sweet pineapple with a good kick of ginger and pepper spice, and creamy vanilla.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n The creators chose this flavour because of the traditional symbolism of pineapples in the Caribbean. Pineapples are a symbol of friendship and hospitality, and islanders traditionally hang pineapples on their doors as a welcoming sign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This rum tastes great on its own, or combined with Coke or tonic water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Want to try?

Coming in at a dangerous 64% ABV, this rum isn’t for the faint-hearted, but the flavours are just sublime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It combines Guyanese rum with tangy mango and pineapple, layers of salted caramel and a touch of ginger, and tastes great in cocktails or is “the bomb” in a classic rum and Coke. It also comes in a really funky bottle, which is a bonus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Want to try?
