Brendan’s Spiced Rum

This spirit greets the senses with a flavorful blend of traditional spices; cinnamon, allspice and clove accented by a refreshing citrus kick and rounded off with notes of White Oak. 

This spiced rum puts a twist on a traditional flavor profile.  Instead of a thick vanilla flavored background, Brendan’s has a refreshing citrus presence that balances well with the spices.  Our combination of allspice, cloves, cinnamon, and other spices are present in the beginning, and then mellow out with a unique orange flavor that remains on the palate. Our Spiced Rum finishes in second life Hungarian Oak Barrels for 6 months.
