Bottles of run

Lymington-based Beachcomber Gin has won a silver award for its Beachcomber Spiced Rum at The London Spirits Competition 2022.

Beachcomber Rum is a dark, sweet and spicy rum distilled in the Caribbean for Beachcomber Gin and rested in Oak barrels. It is then blended by Beachcomber Gin to create a rich and smooth taste of vanilla and brown sugar.

Competition judges noted: ‘Aromas of dark chocolate and cinnamon spice. The palate is rich with citrusy orange peel flavour and roasted pineapple with subtle nuances of shaved chocolate and a long finish, full of flavour.’

As with Beachcomber Gin, the rum is in a printed recyclable bottle and finished off with a biodegradable cork. Bottles that are returned are reused and a donation is made to The Ocean Cleanup.
