Flavour – “A burst of sweetness explodes after crushing the yellow sugar between your teeth, a calming expression of freshly baked bread and brioche with hints of vanilla and tropical notes at the close.” A Taste Of The Caribbean VERSATILE A beautifully smooth pot and column stilled rum that’s been lovingly aged in American bourbon oak casks is a blend of 3, 5 and 8-year-old aged Rums. Neptune is the ancient Roman god of freshwater and the sea in Roman religion, a God that carried a mighty trident and rode on a glorious chariot pulled by either sea creatures or horses, he is the counterpart of the Greek god Poseidon.

They key to success isn’t just to source great rum and make an amazing blend out of it. One of Neptune’s strengths as a brand is savvy marketing.

Neptune is now celebrated once again on the bottles of Neptune Rum, with Neptune Rum even committing to protect the world’s oceans, with sales of every bottle generating vital funds for projects that help prevent and clean up pollution and restore the Earth’s oceans to their former glory, something I’m sure Neptune would approve of.

The sheer number of awards Neptune it has received in such a short space of time would suggest it was a smart move. The brand was named Britain’s Best Rum Brand at the 6th Golden Barrel Awards, as well as Barbados Rum of the Year at the New York International Spirits Competition 2018, and the Berlin International Spirits Competition. The rum is moderately complex, yet it has a light beguiling quality that I appreciate. In The Mouth 50/60 The Neptune Rum and Tonic (R&T): Swap out gin for rum to revamp your go-to tipple. All you need to do is add 50ml Neptune Rum to a highball glass filled with ice and top with tonic water (the brand recommends Fever-Tree Premium Tonic Water) and a dash of orange bitters. Garnish with an orange twist and you’ve got yourself a simple, rum-tastic treat.

Neptune Rum Barbados Gold is one of the world’s most awarded rums with more than 70 global awards. It is an exceptionally smooth pot and column stilled rum balanced with nuances of apricot, banana and coconut overlaid with soft hints of honey and vanilla. Neptune’s final production stage involves a specific cold-filtration process and the addition of soft spring water to dilute the rum from 68% ABV cask strength to its 40% bottling strength. It is bottled in England, without any additional colouring or sugar. Davies was keen to emphasise that he wanted Neptune “to be really honest and very transparent” as a brand. “A lot of producers in the rum industry are a little cloak-and-dagger, which is thankfully coming to an end,” he added. When Davies initially explored developing a new drinks brand, it probably won’t surprise you to learn that gin was his first focus. However, he moved away from that idea after “talking to industry people”. THE WORLDS MOST AWARDED RUM OF 2018/19 Over 65 global awards and rising, a beautiful golden pot and column still rum, with a blend of 8, 5 and 3 year old rum. It is made using sustainably sourced natural ingredients and comprises the finest 8, 5 and 3-year-old-rums.

Nose: Subtle and nuanced with a nice melding of vanilla, butterscotch and almond accented by fine oak spice. The fine oak spices build, bringing dusty impressions of sandalwood, ginger and light fruity citrus zest forward. There are hints of cinnamon as well. Hints of tropical fruit (banana and coconut) add to the nuanced aroma. After a few minutes I notice that the impressions vanilla, almond and butterscotch had almost melded completely bring a nice impression of marzipan to the fore. The duo secured an audience with the well-respected, outspoken rum aficionado and fourth generation rum master at Foursquare Distillery, Richard Seale. Molloy described it as being akin to being in the headmaster’s office. However, according to Davies, Seale was “blown away by my blend”, while Molloy noted that Seale’s comment that Neptune had “made a bloody good rum out of my rum”. Seale agreed to work with them, with current production now standing at about 2,500 bottles every three months. Neptune Rum Caribbean Spiced is an exceptional spiced rum from the Caribbean.
