A bold and characterful expression from Jamaica, this 2013 Single Cask Rum is a masterclass in high-ester distillation and long, complex ageing. Distilled in 2013 in a traditional Jamaican pot still, this rum underwent nine years of maturation, with initial tropical ageing in ex-Bourbon casks followed by further continental maturation in the UK.
House of Rum was also named Independent Bottler of the Year by International Spirits Challenge 2026.
Tasting Notes:
Nose: Intense and aromatic, bursting with overripe tropical fruits, banana esters, oak spice, and hints of funk.
Palate: Full-bodied and powerful, delivering layers of grilled pineapple, toasted coconut, and caramelised sugar, balanced by earthy undertones and a long, warming finish.
Bottled at cask strength (61.2% ABV) in 2023, this is a limited-edition release with only 268 bottles available, offering an authentic taste of Jamaica’s renowned distilling heritage.

Made for pirates, by pirates
The Rum Company Exclusive
“An enemy ship, hidden by the fog, had drifted close enough to strike. “Unleash the Broadside” The Captain thundered as he raised his sword. The gunners obeyed. Cannons erupted as one. Fire burst from the ship’s flank, tearing through the darkness. Splintered wood and smoke filled the air”.
A whisper of rebellion is one thing. A ship full of pirates at 57% ABV is another.
The original Mutiny started the rebellion. Mutiny Navy Strength Overproof Rum™ takes it considerably further.
At a hefty 57% ABV, this is Mutiny turned up to full sail. Crafted from fine Caribbean rum and expertly blended with rich caramel, buttery toffee, toasted vanilla and a deeper hit of warming cinnamon and nutmeg, it delivers the familiar Mutiny character with considerably more fire. It is bold, full-bodied and unapologetically overproof.
This isn't a rum for sitting quietly in the corner.
Join the rebellion!
Made for pirates, by pirates - (2 Bottles for £65)
The Rum Company Exclusive
“Lightning split the heavens, painting the ship in ghostly flashes of white - jagged veins tearing the sky - and for an instant the crew’s faces were lit: Hollow eyes, clenched jaws, soaked rags of men who’d been too long without sleep or mercy. Rain lashed the deck in sheets, and thunder shook the timbers as though the sea itself sought to swallow the ship whole. Deep below the crashing storm, another tempest was brewing - mutiny!”
Unleash the storm. Inspired by the wild roar of the high seas and the audacity of pirate rebellion, our Dark Spice blend starts with the finest Caribbean rum, then dives headfirst into bold flavour. A fierce fusion of rich caramel, vanilla and cinder toffee swirl through each sip, underpinned by black raisin, sweet honeycomb and citrus peel, with warm spice notes of nutmeg, cinnamon and all spice - like the embers of a midnight mutiny.
