Morgan was later made Governor of Jamaica – at the time regarded as one of the world’s great party capitals. This is Sir Henry Morgan – the 17th-century buccaneer and legendary party-starter who became a captain at the age of 27. It’s made from mixing the classic tiki combination of pineapple and juicy mango with the captain’s finest rum – for a delicious tiki experience.Ĭaptain Morgan Tiki makes up a trio of rum choices from Captain Morgan, alongside Captain Morgan Original Spiced Gold and Captain Morgan White, now being served at Wetherspoon.
DiscoveredĬaptain Morgan Tiki is inspired by the South Pacific island adventures of the captain and his crew… and the deliciously tropical tastes they discovered. While the brand is all about fun, the liquid is as credible and high quality as any – carefully distilled white rums, from the Caribbean, for a crisp, clean and deliciously refreshing taste. The secret of how the captain’s tipple is made is, of course, known by only the captain himself and a close bunch of his trusted lieutenants. PineappleĬaptain Morgan has continued to grow in the years since, with a range of new variants, including the NEW Captain Morgan Tiki – a mix of Caribbean rum with pineapple and mango. Launched in 1982, Captain Morgan Original Spiced Rum shipped a million cases during the following 10 years, making it one of the most popular rum brands in the world. The addition of NEW Captain Morgan Tiki completes a trio of Captain Morgan rum choices available at Wetherspoon’s pubs. Inspired by gin distillation, some of the liquid is then steeped in 11 botanicals, including tonka beans, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, mace and allspice, with the remainder being pot distilled with orange peel, Szechuan peppercorns, cardamom and lavender, before being brought together with a little muscovado sugar.įull of spice and zest, Five Hundred Cuts Botanical Rum pays tribute to Blackwell’s unbreakable spirit.
The resulting spirit is then double-pot distilled to create a rum with rich tropical flavours, burnt sugar and hints of dark berries. The new rum derives its name from the Aberdeen-born Blackwell’s book ‘A Curious Herbal’, a comprehensive document recording a ground-breaking 500 plant engravings (or ‘cuts’), some of which are included in the recipe and are displayed on the bottle’s label.īlackwell was the first woman to publish a ‘herbal’ and the first to compile one with so many plants, so accurately drawn.įive Hundred Cuts – like its beers – is a BrewDog innovation, a botanical rum with no artificial ingredients, which took six months and 35 recipes to complete.ĭistilled from sugar cane molasses, using the world’s first triple-pot still, the liquid is fermented for seven days with red wine yeast and rum yeast. It is a handmade spiced rum, inspired by the life of the trail-blazing 18th-century botanical illustrator Elizabeth Blackwell – ‘a heroine of Aberdeenshire back in the 1730s’.
