Pirate’s Grog is the award winning golden rum that was originally discovered on Roatán, a small Caribbean island situated 60km off the coast of Honduras. The name 'Pirate's Grog' is derived from days of old when pirates and buccaneers used the island as a resting point between voyages. The small unprotected island provided a safe haven for trade in between plundering merchant vessels and sheltering from stormy weather.
PIRATE'S GROG holds quality at the pinnacle of all it's products, our two aged expressions are completely PURE and NATURAL. It's this ageing process that gives them a RICH GOLDEN COLOUR and incredibly SMOOTH FINISH. Both the Five Year and the No.13 have won multiple awards for TASTE and DESIGN.
The Black Ei8ht Coffee Rum is a DELICIOUS INFUSION using cold brewed Brazillian coffee beans, which are infused into Pirate's Grog Five Year, resulting in an ELEGANTLY BALANCED blend full of CHOCOLATE notes! And finally, the brand new Pirate's Grog Spiced builds on that original smoothness by adding a touch of salted caramel, allspice and a SECRET INGREDIENT from the shores of Roatan, creating a new dimension of SUBTLE SWEETNESS and a PINCH OF SPICE.
Let the RUM REVOLUTION begin!
We're kicking off our spiced rum cocktail series with a twist on an old classic... The Mojito.
Sales of rum have surpassed £1 billion (US$1.2bn) a year in the UK, meaning it now accounts for a bigger market share than whisky.
Any true pirate needs to know how to knock up a rum old fashioned! This classic cocktail was first invented somewhere between 1889 and 1895 by Martin Cuneo, for a Kentucky colonel named James E. Pepper who also happened to be a bourbon distiller.
It's fair to say that the nightlife and event industries in the UK have been some of the hardest hit industries in the country from Covid 19, and some businesses still aren't in a position to re-open under the current guidelines (as they lack outdoor and indoor space to facilitate social distancing rules).
OK, so it's technically Espresso Martini day, but as we all know, any vodka based cocktail made with rum is instantly better! None more so than an Espresso Rumtini with Pirate's Grog's devilishly dangerous Black Ei8ht Coffee Rum.
