Description

Karisimbi Spiced Rum is a small batch spiced rum made in Hampshire by the Gorilla Spirits Co. This fabulous spiced rum is named after Mouth Karismbi after the highest volcanic mountain in the Virunga National Park, located between between Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo.

This fine spiced Rum is made by the Gorilla Spirits Co. The company was foudned by Andy Daniels and was born out a passion for wishing to produce high-quality, artisan spirits while also supporting conservation efforts. Andy spent four years perfecting the Mountain Strength Gin recipe until the first release in 2015. The original distillery was located in Four Marks near Alton but, needing more space, they relocated to the village of Upton Grey, south east of Basingstoke, in summer 2018. As well as this fabulous spiced rum they also produce various gins, including Silverback Mountain Strength, an Old Tom, a Wild Strawberry and a Clementine and Bergamot, Blackback Vodka and Maraba coffee liqueurs. Their products have received many awards and accolades for their quality and craftsmanship.

Karisimbi Spiced Rum is a multi-island rum, a complex blend of unaged and three to five-year-old rums from the Dominican Republic and Barbados and unaged pot still rums from both Jamaica and the Dominican Republic. The rum is then aged in ex-Bourbon casks and is richly spiced with blood orange, cinnamon, ginger and vanilla, this is a Spiced Rum like no other. Bottled at 40% ABV.

For every bottle of Karisimbi Spiced Rum sold in the UK, depending on the strength, approximately £15 goes straight to the HMRC, frightening isn’t it? Gorilla Spirits add their own GAT (Gorilla Added Tax) and for every bottle of Karisimbi Spiced Rum sold £1 goes directly to The Gorilla Foundation who are working to save the last remaining gorillas from extinction. As with all their products, the bottle is made from 100% consumer recycled glass.

Tasting Notes

Karisimbi Spiced Rum is charactrised by a dry character with spicy ginger, warming cinnamon with juicy orange. 

Serve With

Uniquely drier than most spiced rums, Karisimbi Spiced is designed to be mixed. Try great mixed with a good cola, ginger beer or as a base for a daiquiri. Also great for livening up a hot chocolate!
