The Lyme Bay Winery 'Lugger Rum' has been launched as a new libation that is sure to please rum drinkers who are looking for a premium take on the classic spirit. Crafted in Devon, the Caribbean-style rum is inspired by local smuggler Jack Rattenbury who was notorious for utilizing Lugger-style fishing boasts to bring in the contraband.
The Lyme Bay Winery 'Lugger Rum' is fragrantly spiced with orange peel, nutmeg, cinnamon, cloves, vanilla and ginger to help enhance the aromatic experience when enjoying it straight up or in a cocktail. The rum is placed in bourbon-charred barrels made from oak to age it to the perfect level prior to bottling and impart a robust flavor that is inspired by libations of the past.
