HMS Skipjack Spiced Rum | 700ML

A blend of rums from the Caribbean is aged in oak barrels before a whole host of spices and botanicals are added to create this flavourful serve, with the likes of zingy ginger, cinnamon, cloves, vanilla, and banana making an appearance. Spicy and sweet, HMS Skipjack Spiced Rum will hold its own with some ginger beer splashed in.

Distillery Information

Like many people, Ben Maguire, founder of HMS Spirits, has always enjoyed a refreshing G&T. But he felt that there was a gap in the market and wanted to create something that combined traditional gin making values with a modern twist. “There were loads of gins out there, but I wanted something that appealed to people like me. Deep down I’m a bit of a stickler for tradition but as a young entrepreneur, I love trying out new things and seeing where that takes me,” - Ben. So that’s what he did – he invested in a beautiful 35-litre copper still, during a completely non-related trip to Hungary, shipped it back and installed it in his garage. Over the next few years, he spent every spare moment testing different recipes, blends and botanicals in search of the perfect mix – a gin that respected the art of the London Dry but also delivered a fresh, unexpected twist. The eureka moment arrived in early 2016 when the blend he was working on hit the spot with him and his friends, who were soon looking to try more. The recipe had been perfected but now he needed everything else, from selecting the right bottles and stoppers to designing labels and settling on a name. This was a labour of love in itself because everything had to look and feel as distinctive as the gin itself tasted.
