About this deal

The Original Spiced Rum from Bush Rum Co. combines a base of Caribbean rum with an array of aromatic spices. The resultant spirit, with its warm and spicy profile, is said to pair excellently with ginger beer. Symposium Spirits’ founders said in a statement, “while we live in an era where there are lots of choices – it felt like there was little to differentiate between portfolios and products with a singular approach. Rather than complain we decided to do something about it – we took inspiration from the merchants of the past and developed a portfolio and an offer that is relevant for today." With ginger ale - my favourite. The combo of mango and ginger just seemed to work really well. Great served over lots of ice, just sit and relax in the garden with a large mango rum + ginger ale. Yum! Californian brewer Alesmith is celebrating its 25th anniversary with the release of Diego Antonio, a 7.7% ABV West Coast-style IPA and a collaborative brew with Weathered Souls Brewing. Named after the patron saint of each brewery’s hometowns of San Diego and San Antonio, the beer is brewed using citra, nelson and sauvin hops to create the tropical flavours synonymous with these beers.. The beer is available throughout Arizona, Nevada, Oregon, southern California, Texas, Australia, Mexico and South Korea. Put those two together. Mix in some family pride in having a better recipe than your neighbor. Throw in a dash of the mysterious for no one wanting to reveal their unique methods. Let that sit for entirely too long and you’ve got a recipe for an adventurous night on the town in Montserrat. Sometimes, knowing the dangers is no reason not to try something.

First, you have the bush. Throughout the Caribbean, many specific leaves, barks and roots have been used for thousands of years for medicinal purposes. A little arrowroot for this, a little “love vine” for that. Then, of course, you’ve got the rum. In this case, it’s the very rum my brother Steve mentioned just a few weeks ago: Wray & Nephew’s overproof rum. (126-proof or 63% alcohol by volume!)

Consider this similar product...

Australian wine brand Tempus Two has added a sparkling wine to its Copper series in the UK. The Copper Prestige Cuvée follows the successful launch of the producer’s Wilde Chardonnay into Sainsbury’s this year. The wine, which is made using grapes from south-eastern Australia, is fermented for two weeks in tanks before being blended and bottled. According to the producer, the sparkler has flavours of “crisp apple, green pear, pineapple and guava” and is said to pair well with seafood, oysters and soft cheese. The task was equally tempting and daunting. A seductively lit wall of three dozen different flavors of “bush rum” with color and variety to surpass Baskin-Robins: tropical fruits like pineapple, orange and passionfruit; mysterious local herbs and spices like chook chook and pueve; and truly bizarre-looking concoctions like avocado and “tobac zombie.” Over the course of three nights at the RumFire Hotel Bar at the brand new Cabrits Resort & Spa Kempinski on the island of Dominica I thought, could I try them all? According to ResearchAndMarkets.com, the rum market in India registered a positive compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 0.71% during the period 2013 to 2018 with a sales value of ₹194,086.89 million in 2018, an increase of 0.78% over 2017.

That bar was Mizer’s Bar in Salem. It’s a small spot, just one room. When we arrived, two young Montserratians were circling a small pool table shooting a game in silence. Set against one wall a tiny TV on a shelf was blaring professional wrestling. Installed behind a small bar on the far side stood a large, imposing figure we’d soon learn was Mr. Mizer, himself. The BushRumCo takes the flavours of the Caribbean and brings them to life by blending Guyaneserumwith tropical fruits and spices to create a range of spicedrumwith flavours that are bright, refreshing and subtly sweet. London brewer Beavertown has launched a limited edition passion fruit Berliner Weisse called Passion Phantom. The beer is brewed with extra-pale barley and malted wheat to a strength of 3.5% ABV before being kettle-soured with lactobacillus then infused with passion fruit purée. The brewer said that it has “kombucha-style sourness” mixed with the sweetness from ripe passion fruit. The beer is part of a limited release project by Beavertown which sees new beers launch each month accompanied by their own Spotify playlist for the ultimate drinking experience.

Bush Rum Original Spiced Details

Each product label will tell the story of the producer, two of whom will be Rootsman Murphy in Carr’s Bay and Uncle’s from Flemmings, Salem. Absolutely! It’s one of the many, many uncommon things to be found on the utterly uncommon island of Montserrat. With a nod towards tropical flavours, the Tropical Citrus rum encapsulates the essences of various fruits like pineapple, mango, and orange, presenting a spirit that is apt for a range of summer beverages. It’s noted to pair splendidly with lemonade, offering a refreshing drink option. The selection includes common spices like rosemary, thyme, cinnamon and peppermint, and those all tasted as you would expect. The herbs are all very strong and almost overpowering if you’re not prepared. The more exotic herbs ranged from savory spices like “chook chook” and “pueve,” to the bitter Moringa, to the very anise-flavored l’absent and nannie, which tasted almost like a shot of Fernet. The sorrel had a pleasant hibiscus intensity. And my favorite of all the single shots was probably the lemongrass, which paired beautifully with the oak-aged base rum.
