A new lineup of Dead Man’s Fingers rum products are being launched by the brand just in time for the holidays to offer consumers a way to whip up high-quality cocktails at their leisure. The spirts come in four flavor options including Liquorice & Blackcurrant, Dragon Fruit, Banana and Cherry, which are each packaged in the brand's own skull glasses. Priced at £22.95 each, the spirits are being launched from Parfett's in the UK for shoppers to pick up alongside their favourite seasonal product varieties.
