Top Shelf Dark Rum

Top Shelf Dark Rum creates a mellow dark rum-style spirit with rounded molasses, caramel and warming spice notes. It is a versatile choice for sipping, mixing with cola or using in rum-based cocktails.

How to mix

Shake the bottle well, then add the essence to the quantity of 40% ABV neutral spirit specified on the label. Mix thoroughly and allow the finished spirit to rest before tasting; several days of ageing helps the flavours settle and integrate.

This is a flavouring essence rather than a complete fermentation or distillation kit. You will need prepared neutral spirit.

Compare a bolder dark rum

Pure Distilling Dark Rum is a rich, bold essence making up to 2.25 litres and benefiting from at least seven days of rest. This Top Shelf option is mellower, with molasses, caramel and warming spice notes.

Both are flavourings for prepared neutral spirit; follow the current bottle directions rather than treating the mixing ratios as interchangeable.
