Belgrove unveils spiced rum
The Cartmel Spirit Company has debuted a spiced fig and blackberry expression as the second Belgrove rum in its portfolio.
Edmund Wood, owner and founder of Belgrove, said: “After leafing through my flavour thesaurus and after months of trialing new flavour combinations I arrived at spiced fig and blackberry.
“Rich and fruity, with gentle notes of honeycomb, raspberry and a hint of cinnamon, it was worthy of joining the Belgrove shelf.”
The Demerara sugar cane is distilled using wooden pot and coffey stills, containing a blend of rums aged up to 12 years.
Wood added: “We’ve imported the rum into the UK, [and] we then infuse it with real ingredients, all natural flavours – nothing artificial goes in the bottle.
“My hero cocktail for both Belgrove rums is an Old Fashioned with chocolate bitters; but we’ve also created some new delicious cocktails just for the spiced fig and blackberry rum.”
Belgrove Spiced Fig & Blackberry Rum joins the company’s hazelnut expression, which was ‘the only hazelnut rum on the market’ when it launched in 2019.
The 40% ABV bottling can be purchased from Amazon for an RRP of £29.95 (US$41.07).
