Cockspur Rum

The rum is more commonly known as Cockpur 5 star. As you can see from the photo this is due to the 5 “World Cup” like stars above the Cockspur. It is both modern and classy at the same time. In terms of presentation, of a standard bar bottle this is pretty decent. The rear label gives some information regarding the rum’s heritage and origin. The only thing I will pick up the labelling on is how the rum can be enjoyed. That is something I will come to later in this review. If you find the brand familiar but cannot place it – you may well be a cricket fan. The rum has sponsored numerous cricketing events over the past few years.

Cockspur Rum Tasting Notes

Nose: Light and golden in colour with an uncomplicated, pleasant smell.

Palate: Its taste is extremely smooth, round and warm, which becomes spicy on the palate.

Finish: Long and warm finish.

Distillery Information

Located at Brighton, Black Rock in the southern parish of St. Michael on the island of Barbados is the West Indies Rum Distillery. This rum distillery was established way back in 1893 by two brothers from Germany named Stades. Their plan was to produce rum which was to be shipped back to Germany. In 1903 some Barbadian interests acquired the distillery and to this day it has remained in Barbadian hands. The Goddard Enterprises Ltd. has maintained this facility as one of the most efficiently run rum distilleries on the island of Barbados.
