Pusser's 'Gunpowder Proof' Black Label (previously known as Blue Label) is a higher proof traditional British Naval rum, produced using the blending recipe from the Admiralty. Well loved, it picked up a Trophy at the International Spirits Challenge 2016.

The Pusser's Rum collection has had a bit of a revamp. While their Blue Label is still made with the exact same blend of rums - a recipe from the Admiralty - it is now bottled at 40% abv rather that 54.5% abv. The reasoning behind this, is it allows Pusser's to be distributed to Naval bases, where the maximum allowed strength is 40%. If you're looking for the original 54.5% version, then fear not! It has now been rebranded as Pusser's 'Gunpowder Proof' Black Label.

With a bottle design reminiscent of those kept by captains in the 19th century and an instruction from the makers not to even consider mixing it with anything but ice, Pyrat XO is a genuine premium rum. Combining rums aged for as many as fifteen years, Pyrat XO is sweet and viscous on the palate, offering comforting marmalade sweetness. The orange flavour is tempered by sweeter, sugary notes and a medicinal edge reminiscent of cough drops. A truly exceptional rum which should be sipped at leisure.

No, there hasn’t been an accident it’s supposed to look like that! The distinctive asymmetrical bottle that R.L. Seale’s Finest rum is delivered in is just one of its many great perks.

Spicy cooking apples are surrounded by notes of freshly baked pastry, cinnamon and nutmeg leading into a long and satisfying end of toffee apple and oak.

Ron Barcelo Imperial is an aged gold rum that offers buttery aromas, an oaky palate and a long finish with hints of cedar wood and cigar leaves.

Ron Cubay continues to bring its excellent source of Cuban rum to international consumers, after years of Cuban exclusivity, to bring this softer edition of its fine Añejo rum, aged for 7 years before being bottled.

Here we have a smoky addition to the Ron Larimar range of cask-finished rums! For this one, the Dominican rum has been finished in casks which previously held heavily peated Scotch single malt whisky, so there's some earthy, savoury smokiness among the sweeter notes from the rum itself. A tipple to bring together rum and whisky lovers alike!

Exuisite Peruvian rum from the Ron Millonario. It's not every day you get to taste rum all the way from Peru, do you?

Ron Santiago De Cuba Anejo 8 Year Old Rum 700Ml Ron Santiago de Cuba Aňejo 8 year old is aged in old oak barrels in Santiago de Cuba, the cradle of light rum. This rum has classic aroma of a Cuban rum, lighter in style than other rums, with aged notes. Excellently balanced, it is undeniably smooth and delicate with notes of honey, vanilla and cacao. Its flavour perfectly embodies the rum from the Oriente of Cuba (the south east of the island): smooth, fruity and rich. It has a unique aroma that stands out in blind tastings amongst other Cuban rums. Every bottle of Ron Santiago de Cuba is certified by the DOP (Denominación de Origen Protegida) meaning production, bottling and 100% of sugarcane is from Cuba. It also means the minimum age of any liquid found in the Aňejo is 8 years old with older blends included Nose: Notes of honey, vanilla, and cacao Palate: Exquisite notes of tropical fruit, honey, some coffee and cacao present.

 A truly exceptional Guatamalan rum, Zacapa Centenario XO is a premium offering which doesn’t disappoint when it comes to flavour. Beautifully delicate, the flavour of Zacapa Centenario XO is matured in a mix of bourbon and sherry casks which together deliver a flavour which is exceptionally sweet and sugary, without being sickly. The softness on the palate of this mature rum is surprising and very welcome, with only a hint of smoke coming through in the finish.

An incredible rum – winner of a Platinum medal and ranked in First Place by the prestigious Beverage Testing Institute in Chicago, with a whopping 97 points. Interestingly, now that industry giants Diageo are distributing Zacapa, the '23 years old' age statement has suddenly been dropped and replaced with a somewhat more plausible claim – the rums used are aged between 6 and 23 years old and are blended together in a solera.

An intriguing one here from Rum Sixty Six. While many of the expressions from Rum Sixty Six come from the Foursquare Distillery in Barbados, this one is an English white rum! It was originally distilled in the Caribbean and was matured for two years before making its way over to Liverpool, where it was redistilled! Following that, it was rested in copper tanks to let the flavour profile mellow out for a touch, and was then bottled.

Sagatiba Pura Cachaça is a fresh and clean example of Brazil’s second favourite drink (after beer). Noticeably sweet as soon as it hits the palate, you will enjoy the bite of lemon and lime and hints of orange all tantalising the tongue.

Full bodied and packed with deep brown sugar notes, Skipper is a molasses-based rum which brings together seven different individual rums. Its deep mahogany hues hides a brawny, bittersweet flavour which is burnt on the palate and features crème brulee notes.

One of the rare 100% pot still rums out there, Smith & Cross is a Jamaican favourite which allows tropical fruity flavours to define its character.

This heat is tempered by balancing vanilla and muscovado sugar notes, bringing Smith & Cross to a mellower end note.

The Salted Caramel Rum Liqueur is produced from column distilled pure sugar cane juice and reduced to 35% before being blended with natural flavours and a touch of sugar for balance. On the nose, you have a very pleasant popcorn aroma and sweetness coming through while on the palate, you can taste the creamy salted caramel. It is very smooth and leaves an after taste of fudge and hazelnut in your mouth. This Salted Caramel liqueur mixed together with the St Aubin Classic Rhum Agricole, St Aubin Rhum Classic Coffee and a freshly pulled espresso makes a mean Salted Caramel Espresso Martini. Origin: Product of Mauritius ABV: 35% Proof: 70° Size: 50cl/500ml Allergen: NA

Sweet notes of Demerara sugar can be picked out of the fiery heat of Stroh 80, alongside a soothing butterscotch with nutmeg hints. The intensity of Stroh 60 shouldn’t be underestimated and each taste will linger long after finishing.

An extremely high strength rum from Saint Vincent. This is distilled from molasses in a column still.

From its old-style bottling to its unusual name, The Kraken Rum is an exciting addition to the drinks cabinet. With flavours more in keeping with a peppered spicy rum than sea monsters from the deep, the pure black huesare different to your usual drink and certainly make for a long drink with a difference. Marries perfectly with a sweet ginger beer, The Kraken rum’s flavour is as deep as its hues, with heavy spicing balanced against honeyed vanilla.

The Lovers Rum is a vibrant blend of Latin American and Caribbean rums, created by the brilliant team of ex-Bacardi ambassador David Cordoba and beverage specialist Arijit Bose! It was made to be the perfect rum in a Daiquiri, and with its oodles of tropical fruit flavours, we'd absolutely have to agree... Heaps of tropical fruit here, with pineapple and passion fruit at the helm, a dusting of cinnamon, brown sugar and pink peppercorn. Hints of oak and zesty citrus appear.
