(translation: Stop, dear chaps) is emblazoned on the back label, begging the reader to learn more about this award-winning spirit.<\/p>\n<p>This rum was conceived in the jungle of Roat\u00e1n 40 miles off the coast of Honduras. Pirates and buccaneers used the island for R&amp;R between fights and plundering. Two visitors from England, Gareth and Beth, discovered a spirit which inspired them to make their own, with the support of \u2018The Dutch Pirate\u2019, Robert J. van der Weg.<\/p>\n<p>Pirate\u2019s Grog Spiced Rum is a delicious tapestry of salt, caramel, allspice and more from the region around Roat\u00e1n. Its base is a well-crafted five-year-aged rum offering depth and richness. Its maturation takes place in American oak and bourbon barrels which add both character and flavour. The rum is then blended in small batches.<\/p>\n<h4>Tasting notes:<\/h4>\n<p>Appearance: clear amber<br \/>\nNose: Vanilla, Christmas spice<br \/>\nPalate: Sweet, brown sugar, cinnamon, vanilla<br \/>\nFinish: medium, sweet vanilla<\/p>\n<p>Pirate\u2019s Grog Spiced Rum has great shelf appeal and would make the perfect gift for any rum lover or enthusiastic mixologist.\u00a0 You don\u2019t have to be a pirate to enjoy it, so stay safe and cosy at home and savour the sweet warming glow.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/piratesgrogrum.com\/\">Learn more about Pirate\u2019s Grog Spiced Rum here\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I found myself drawn to this rum even before the first sip.
