About this SPIRIT
Own Range Rum
Our collection of rum represents a range of countries around the world, from Jamaica and Barbados to Mauritius and Fiji.
These different rums can vary greatly in style and taste: spicy or fruity, white or dark, smoky or bright. Broadly speaking, there are three distinctive styles of rum, which have been shaped by historical colonial forces: British, French and Spanish.
Rums made in English-speaking regions, such as Barbados and Belize, tend to be heavier and richer in style. Those made in French-speaking areas, such as Haiti, are likely to be leafy and smoky; while Spanish-speaking countries, such as Nicaragua and Guatemala, are likely to produce a lighter, brighter style of rum. You’ll also find an ever-expanding collection of rums from other territories and continents, from Mauritius to England.

Description
The Caribbean boasts a long history of rum distilling, born of the sugar plantations that began to develop in the 17th century. Each country has its unique style and with maturity the full, intense fruit, spice and, often, molasses flavours shine through. This vibrant, invigorating St Lucia Rum has a sweet honeyed nose with bright ripe fruit and herbal notes. The palate has good length and after a little while the spirit subsides to manifest the full fruit, toffee and spice elements.
Berry Bros. & Rudd can trace its origins back to 1698 when the Widow Bourne founded her shop opposite St James’s Palace. Today, the present generation of Berrys and Rudds continue to manage the family-owned business from 3 St James’s Street.
