About this deal

Our panel – made up of 10-accredited spirits experts and rum-loving consumers – put 35 spiced rums to the test, spanning supermarket steals to big-brand bottles.

Notes of vanilla, caramel, butterscotch and citrus, with a long and spicy finish."

The CUT range consists of CUT SPICED RUM, CUT SMOKED RUM, the first smoked rum in the UK and CUT OVERPROOF RUM. CUT SPICED is infused with real spices including aniseed, nutmeg, ginger, pepper, cinnamon, coriander seed, lemon and vanilla. CUT SMOKED is infused with burnt oak chip smoke and then rested in oak barrels for 3 years. And finally, CUT OVERPROOF is an amazing smooth 151 proof rum infused with real spices. There are powerful aromas of cola and vanilla on first sniff, and these continue into tasting. We noticed some classic spicy notes such as cinnamon and nutmeg too, meaning it’s not completely removed from what you might expect from a classic spiced rum. Sly Dog’s spiced rum is sublimely smooth and sweet enough to enjoy simply over ice or with a mixer such as ginger beer or cola. This botanical rum recently won a silver medal at the London Spirits Competition and is from Cabezon Beverage, a Scottish craft spirit company. For beginners, this is a great rum to have with a nice cola and a slice of lime - it's refreshing and very moreish.Rum can span the full spectrum of colours, from the light and mild white rums (which are perfect as a mojito base), through to aged golden rums that have developed a more complex taste.

The producer's bottle below the minimum level of alcoholic strength that would designate them as a ‘rum’. Here in Europe, this is 37.5% ABV (EU LAW)and many rums are 35% or lower, sometimes much lower. Malibu is only 21% and many retailers list it as ‘rum’ when it is really on a ‘spirit drink made with rum’. From rum distilled on a remote island to liqueurs and spiced options, here we take a look at some of the best Scottish rums. Aged for up to 12 months in oak casks, the rum is spiced with a selection of fresh tropical fruit and exotic spices, including pineapple, orange, cacao and allspice.

This unaged rum is pot distilled from sugar cane molasses in Scotland by Dumfries-based Ninefold Distillery. THE MAJORITY of OuR RUM THAT WE USE FOR CUT RUM COMES FROM THE WORTHY PARK ESTATE IN JAMAICA. ITS RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ISLAND BETWEEN KINGSTON AND OCHO RIOS - THEY HAVE BEEN MAKING QUALITY RUM SINCE 1720 AND THEY ARE VERY GOOD AT IT. THE DISTILLERY IS 366 METRES ABOVE SEA LEVEL AND THE ESTATE STRETCHES OVER 10,000 ACREs and they are one of only 5 estates stilL farming sugar cane and distilling rum since the last big drought that saw many others go under. Originally small batch distilled in England before moving production to Scotland, the rums draw inspiration from the couple’s Ugandan and Jamaican family heritage. Historically, adding spices and fruit to a blend of rums was used to mask undesirable qualities in the spirit. Today, however, spiced rums are proving very popular, thanks to the huge variation in flavours.You’ll often find these styles are sweeter thanks to the addition of tropical fruit — banana, pineapple and orange — with plenty of spice coming from the likes of warming cinnamon and punchy ginger. How we test spiced rum Revenge’ has been distilled in Orkney and then aged in ex-bourbon and virgin oak casks for three years. Aberdeen-based Ardent Spirits, an independent bottling company, recently launched an exclusive ‘Sea Shanty rum’ with proceeds going to Aberdeen RNLI.

Like Christmas cake in a bottle, it is made usingrumdistilled from freshly pressed sugar cane juice on the Island of Madeira. J. Gow Rum takes its name from the infamous Orcadian pirate John Gow and the new rum, ‘Revenge’ is named after the ship that the pirate renamed after leading a mutiny on board, due to poor work conditions. Orkney distillery J. Gow Rum recently added a three-year-old cask aged pot still rum to its core range.The Matugga distillery was established in 2018 by husband and wife team Jacine and Paul Rutasikwa, who had been selling their range of rums since 2015. We test our alcohol by drinking it, using a step-by-step process to select the very best. First, we try each spiced rum on its own, to assess the quality and flavour profile. We’re looking to see if the distiller’s description matches what we can taste, as well as making notes on any interesting flavours we find that aren’t mentioned on the bottle. Following the solo test, we partner each spiced rum with one of its most reliable mixers to see how it fairs in a long drink. Do any new flavours develop? Is the rum lost to the mixer or does it hold its own?
