Craft Gin Club's January 2025 Rum of the Month box:
Craft Gin Club's January Rum of the Month: Anne Bonny Spiced Rum
January's Rum of the Month is an adventurous bottling from premium French spirits producer Maison Villevert, and is inspired by the tale of 18th century pirate Anne Bonny.
Serving under John "Calico Jack" Rackham, a famous English pirate of the same era, Anne Bonny is enshrined in legend for her escapades across the Caribbean and has inspired expressions in literature, film and even rum, with this spirit drawing inspiration from her zest for life and inherent sense of adventure.
Utilising an expert blend of rums from La Réunion, Jamaica and the Dominican Republic, this expression benefits from a vibrant foundation further enhanced by an age-old French oak maturation process and the addition of natural spices.
On the palate, gourmet aromas of buttery pastry blend seamlessly with creamy vanilla, smooth caramel and praline, resulting in a smooth and complex taste with lively spices that add depth and intrigue to every sip.
Inspired by the pirate Anne Bonny's spirit of rebellion and exploration, this rum is a true taste of adventure. Each spirit in this beautiful Caribbean blend brings its own character and flavour profile, creating something entirely unique. Rich and smooth, with layered spices and plenty of complexity rounded out with a subtle vanilla sweetness, this delectable drink is perfect for solo sipping or mixing into tropical cocktails, where the spiced flavours really come alive.
