A vibrant White Rum from Cape Cornwall, made by blending a Caribbean rum base with Cornish water. The name is a nod to the history of Cape Cornwall, when rum was smuggled in by boat and stored in the walls of the founders' farm building!
In 1925, Harvey’s (one of the founders) great great grandfather was surprised to discover bottles of alcohol mysteriously built into the walls of his farm cottage. Legend has it that to avoid high government taxes, rum and other goods were often smuggled into Cape Cornwall by boat and stored in a farm building known as “the Wink”. They now use that very same building to lovingly age, mix, spice and bottle their specialist rums.
