Kiwi white Rum worth stealing.
Jamie Duff (a lawyer) and Roger Holmes (an architect) came to the land down under from UK when economy was in shambles and struggled to find a job. They started researching fragrances and Rum and decided to start a premium Rum brand. The Stolen Rum was born. Its mission: be borderless and limitless. Where others focus their stories around personality or location, Jamie and Roger based their vision on culture, music and fashion. Now, New Zealand doesn’t have a history of top-shelf Rum production, so they decided to shake things up by disrupting the Spirit category. Their secret? Be authentic.
Stolen Rum doesn’t tell stories of rowdy pirates or lock-in on tales of New Zealand. It’s a truly global Spirit whose only identity is being Caribbean Rum. The White Rum comes from a molasses ferment that went through a continuous distillation. The Spirit is then matured on the island of Trinidad for at least two years in cherry-picked charred American Oak barrels that used to hold Bourbon. Then it’s blended by hand and carbon-filtered to make it crystal clear. The Rum entered the San Francisco World Spirits Competition in 2010 and won a bronze medal, despite being on the market for only three weeks. It’s a Rum with a twist for contemporary drinkers.
