Dark Matter Spiced Rum

Each batch of Dark Matter Spiced Rum signature expression is crafted by hand to their unique recipe which includes Oriental ginger, Indonesian long pepper, allspice berries and Thai green peppercorns, all of which are infused with their own distilled rum.

This blend of fresh and dried aromatic spices contributes to Dark Matter Spiced Rum’s unique flavour profile; unashamedly punchy but with a touch of sweetness and an expansively long finish.

This richly spiced spirit will satisfy the most curious of palates, whether enjoyed on its own over ice, in a simple mix with ginger beer or cola, or in updates to your favourite dark spirit cocktails such as the Old Fashioned.

It all began with a ‘what if…?’ moment between co-founders, brothers Jim and John Ewen. The question they asked themselves was: What if they built a rum distillery in Scotland? Undeterred by hurdles and underwhelmed by support, they went for it. Against the odds – not to mention good sense – they set up and established Scotland’s first rum distillery in 2015.

They distill and create their award-winning signature Spiced Rum alongside a trio of spiced and flavoured rum liqueurs in the small but perfectly-formed Dark Matter distillery in Banchory, Aberdeenshire. Creating a humdrum spiced rum was never the plan, and so they searched the globe for ingredients that could deliver something distinctly different. Their recipe includes freshly-peeled Oriental ginger, Thai green peppercorns, Indonesian long pepper and South American allspice berries which intermix to give their signature spirit an explosive flavour profile. They bash, crush, smash (amongst other methods) all these spices to open up the maximum amount of flavour in every batch.
