HOW COULD WE MAKE A SPICED RUM WITH BOTTOMLESS FLAVOR? By combining spices & citrus like a pastry chef would for indulgent, layered depth. In spice we trust: CRUSOE Spiced Rum combines the warmth of baking spices with the bright taste of fresh California orange. This is what spiced rum always wanted to be: rich flavor that stands out in cocktails. Add extra depth to your favorite drinks like Cuba Libre, Dark & Stormy, Mojito or Mai Tai.

REVIEW “On the nose, there’s some alcohol up front, but give it a minute to settle in the glass and you’ll find lots of allspice and cloves. Take a sip and there’s more of the same, plus more prominent vanilla and cinnamon notes mingling with a background of orange peels. It’s medium-bodied and fresh on the palate, and it finishes with plenty of dry spice.” Kevin Gray, Cocktail Enthusiast
