WE’RE A BUNCH OF FLAVOUR EXPLORERS
Driven by an ambition to introduce a contemporary, real and honest approach to rum tapping into the full flavour potential of rum.
Without pretention or illusions, we look beyond tradition to introduce a rum like no other – complex, distinctive, and eminently drinkable. The perfect union of land and sea.
Ruben Maduro
FOUNDER
I was basically born into cocktails and mixed drinks. Over the years I worked in some of the world’s best bars. Along the way I discovered that I was quite good at creating cocktail recipes and unusual but intriguing flavour combinations, winning several international competitions before educating thousands of bartenders about spirits, botanicals and flavour.It was then that I realised there was something missing behind the bar in terms of rum. I just couldn’t understand why all rums are so sweet, artificially flavoured and who ever thought that pirate themed parties were a good idea?
That resulted into a mission to transform the category by introducing a contemporary, real and honest approach to rum. One with a focus on unparalleled full flavour and exploring new ways of enjoying it.
