Cornish Spiced Rum

Our Sea Maiden Rum, a delightful nectar born from the shadowy world of smuggling, is meticulously crafted from the finest UK sugar cane molasses known to man. With great care and secret techniques, this rich liquid is distilled in the heart of Cornwall, where it undergoes a captivating transformation. Infused with a harmonious blend of seductive vanilla, zesty lime, warm cinnamon, and tantalising nutmeg, each sip unravels a symphony of flavours. To complete this remarkable creation, we blend our smuggled elixir with the pristine waters of Cornwall's springs, ensuring a truly divine drinking experience.

If you are ordering a new Optic Bottle this means the label is the wrong way up when stood up as when it’s placed on optics it will be the correct way up.

Finally got to try Cornish Blue Flamingo Gin today at the Great Cornish Market at the Royal Cornwall Showground! It tastes amazing and even managed to convert my vodka-drinking wife to gin so much that I had to buy a bottle. If you haven't tried it, you're missing out!

You definitely wont be disappointed with this dark rum. It's not overly spiced either. I find the vanilla notes and nutmeg really come through. I enjoy it neat, over ice, ginger beer and a slice of lime or diet coke with a slice of lime!

First came across the Rum whilst visiting friends in Cornwall and bought a bottle thoroughly enjoyed it and when we realised we can get refill packs - that was a bonus! This is the second time on ordering, found it easy to do without any fuss - thank you will be keeping the bottle topped up 😊
