This 14 Year Old Doorly’s rum is made at Foursquare distillery in Barbados. Rich and sweet, it has notes of tropical fruits and toffee apples.

Matured in a single cask for 12 years, this 2006-vintage Dominican rum has been bottled by The 1423 for its Single Barrel Selection range. Made at a mystery distillery in the Dominican Republic, this rum has gentle aromas of coconut cream, walnuts and delicate pineapple notes, with just a hint of warm spices. The palate offers notes of roasted walnuts and sandalwood, with dry, fruity notes developing into a long finish.

The fifth edition of a series that celebrates the founding of the Dennery distillery on St Lucia - a distillery that would be merged with Roseau in 1972 to create St Lucia Distillers. This edition, complete with shocking pink packaging, is a blend of distillates between 6 and 12 years old. The result is a complex rum with fresh notes of fruit, sweetness and oak spice.

The Real McCoy is a range of rums produced for the eponymous American company. This is aged in heavily charred American oak barrels for three years.

A brand new presentation of Appleton Estate Reserve eight-year-old, released in 2020. A smooth and sweet Jamaican rum, it offers notes of toffee apples, cinnamon, crystalised ginger and soft oak spice on the palate.

A fresh, grassy rum Agricole from William Hinton, made on Madeira Island using freshly-pressed sugar cane juice. The palate offers notes of cut grass, lemongrass and summer flowers.

An absolutely delicious rum, created from a blend of Coffey column still rum from Foursquare and pot still rum from Hampden. Absolutely nothing else has been added and this has not been filtered. Round and rich on the palate with a hint of green banana, pineapple, liquorice and a fantastic freshness on the finish. This makes one hell of a Daiquiri.

The second edition in Angostura's No.1 Cask Collection is a blend of rums aged initially for 10 years, which are then finished for a further six in refill French oak.

The 2020-release of Mount Gay XO rum is made with rums matured in a combination of American whiskey, bourbon and Cognac casks for between five and 17 years. The result is a spicy, fruity rum with a creamy, smooth palate.
