Bedford Park Caroni 1998. This rum is actually labelled as Bedford Park Single Barrel Trinidad Rum. I usually go with the detail on the bottle label when “naming” my reviews.
However, the company have this listed as Caroni 1998 online and I figure that will likely entice more readers/potential purchasers. So I’ve gone with that.
Bounty Spiced Spirit Drink. Today’s review of Bounty is brought to you by St Lucia Distillers. This is not the Bounty brand that is produced by Rum Co. of Fiji.
The two brands seem to co-exist without any litigation – I’m not sure how you could or would go about trademarking something as generic as Bounty. I’m sure if you could Mars would have been onto both these rum companies by now.
Dràm Mòr Single Cask Rum Secret Fiji Distillery Aged 8 Years. We return today with another review from Scottish Independent bottler Dràm Mòr. We are taking a visit to a (not so) Secret Distillery on Fiji.
Quite why the distillery insists on their rums being marked as “Secret” when bottled by Independents is beyond me. The South Pacific Rum Distillery is the only operational distillery on the Island, that I am aware of. Certainly the only one that has stocks of rum in Europe.
Black Tot Rum Master Blender’s Reserve 2024. It seems only fitting to be reviewing the latest release of “Black Tot Rum Master Blender’s Reserve 2024 today, which is of course Black Tot Day.
It has been 5 years since the Black Tot brand launched their 50th Anniversary Blend to commemorate the 50th Anniversary of the abolition of the daily Rum Ration in the British Navy. Black Tot Day 31st July 1970.
Morvenna White Rum. This rum is produced in Bude, Cornwall, England by the Cornish Distilling Co.
The Cornish Distilling Co. is a collaboration between husband and wife team – Richard and Fionagh Harding who run the Norton Barton Artisan Food Village and Tom Read.
Tom who has a PhD in biochemistry and a keen love of cocktails and spirits, alongside side a barista and lifeguard background! Tom is the Head Distiller and is in charge of the day to day production of the rum and gin which is produced at the Cornish Distilling Co. The distillery is located in the Food Village. Which in turn is part of the Harding’s small holding in Cornwall.
J Gow Culverin. Regular readers of this website should already beware of the J Gow Rum Distillery from Lamb Holm in the Orkney Islands, Scotland.
I’ve not reviewed any of their rums for a while. In all honesty I’ve not reviewed any rums for a while. Which is something I am looking to correct now I am finding a little more time to get some reviews out.

Hampden Estate 1753. A new release from Hampden Estate to commemorate the year that the distillery was founded. Initially, I expected this to be some kind of Limited Edition release. It is however going to join Hampden Estate 8 Year Old and Hampden Estate HLCF Classic in it’s “Core” range.
