Cargo Cult Spiced

This is the antithesis of something like Bristol Black Spiced or Dark Matter - the spices are very held back. This rum has no added sugar either, so it's purely reliant on a good mix. I think all of the spices in this are pretty much in balance and none of them are overpowering. You can taste the rum through it easily. It's quite expensive and I could understand if some people who like spiced rum found it a little too subtle. You may say, if you;re a spiced run drinker, "well why not just buy a good rum for the same price, since this has such a subtle spiced taste?" I can see that argument, but the rum does have a nice spice to it and maybe it's more about saying that this maybe a good spiced rum for those who don't normally like spiced rum. T

Finally a spiced rum without any sugar added!!! Love the clove, cardamom, cinnamon spiced.. so good with ginger beers or just with ice!! Bottle also just looks awesome. My new go to!!!

Thoughts: Cargo Cult Batch No. 4. A light and relatively easy drinking rum: a number of different flavours exist but doesn't really stand out from the crowd. It is unusual in the fact that it's light in colour, flavour and overall taste but still does pack a large amount of cinnamon sugar. Spiciness exists from start to finish and is probably the lasting sensation of the rum. £30/£35 makes it not too expensive to try but a little too much to be sold on having another bottle.

Rating: 5/10

Smell - Cinnamon sugar, floral, hints of vanilla
Taste - Spicy with ginger notes, cinnamon
After Taste - Long finish, spicy in the mouth, not many other flavours

Cheap alcohol that tries to be boosted by some spices. Capt Morgan level.

Sorry, no...
Brutal force of cinnamon, muddy, sharp...and sweet...omg.

Cinnamon nose with a natural spiced taste. Better than expected.

Nice label and good cork. The smell of cinnamon, jam, orange, sharp. Complex taste: cherry, spices, medicines, without aging, dry. It is heavy and stupid from the second glass.
Would I buy it again? Only once, yes.

At first I thought this might be a bit sweet and artificial, but nothing could be further from the truth! Just the right amount of banana backed by a subtly spiced rum, makes this my current favourite!

So different to other Spiced Rum... this one tastes like quality rum with real spices - and not jammed with sweetners. I really enjoyed this rum with Ginger beer and a squeeze of fresh lime. Great drink!

I was amazed to finally find a Spiced Rum with ZERO sugar added. This product has big punchy spices and is super dry...I found it mixed perfectly with Ginger Beer (which already has enough sugar in it!) a squeeze of lime and it made a beautifully balanced refreshing spicy drink. Then I had 4 more!! Love the local independent producers giving the big guys a run for their money!!!
