I tested this through my hydrometer to see how much of the “natural ripe banana with hints of toffee” was present in this bottling and found my hydrometer bobbing at around the 25% ABV mark. Suggesting that in this 37.5% ABV spirits there are around 40g/L of “additives”. Whilst this is no surprise in the Spiced/Flavoured rum world I had hoped for a much lower reading. Perhaps a sense of a more authentic product. Never mind. This fresh, disruptive addition to the rum category couldn’t have come at a better time, and we’re confident our customers will be just as excited about this release as we are.” The very fact that this “rum” has produced two further variants in such a short space of time tells you all you need to know about the average “rum” drinker here in the UK. Basically a lot of more casual “rum” drinkers in the UK don’t actually know what rum tastes like. Partly because they just drink shit like this and think it’s “rum”. It’s tragic really. This is the type of garbage overly excited teenagers tell me “I’ve got to try” and at Rum Festivals.I usually just smile politely and thank them for their advice……. The banana variant is the first in a new range of flavoured rums from the Langs brand, which will be released in the coming months. Ian Macleod has planned a phased roll out for the brand in the UK on-trade. In September this year, Ian Macleod Distillers revived Jamaican rum brand Langs with the launch of a banana-flavoured expression in the UK. The brand’s first line extensions, Langs Mango and Ginger Rum and Langs Pineapple Rum, are both bottled at 37.5% ABV.Fusce congue ac nibh ut fermentum. Vivamus id auctor dolor.

Langs Jamaican Rum was originally imported in 1861 when it was brought to Glasgow from the Caribbean. The original recipe for Lang Bros Banana Rum was showcased at the Edinburgh international Exhibition in 1886.There’s not a great deal of information out there surrounding Langs Jamaican Rum. It does appear that at some point rum was produced by this particular brand though.

You also may come across King Robert II blended rums on your travels. I’ve never seen the brand in the UK but have noted it in Duty Frees in Cyprus and Greece. Langs Banana Jamaican Rum is said to be a revival of a popular Jamaican rum brand which was famous in the 1800’s. Apparently……. THE PROMOTER : The promoter is Atom Supplies Limited (company register number 03193057), trading as Master of Malt ( MoM ) and having its registered office at Unit 1 Ton Business Park, 2-8 Morley Road, Tonbridge, Kent, TN9 1RA, United Kingdom.

In all honesty I tend not to focus too much on the history of rum. I’m more about the here and now. So I’m not going to worry much about it.

ENTRY/COMPETITION PERIOD : This competition opens at 10:00:00 UK time on 4 July 2022 and closes at 17:00:00 UK time on 10 July 2022 . Barbara Turing, innovation manager at Ian Macleod Distillers, said: “The rum boom continues to grow and is showing no signs of slowing down. Consumers are increasingly seeing rum as a category in which they can find exciting and sophisticated drinking experiences, so we felt this is the right time to revive a brand that fits perfectly with these trends. Basically the nose is sweet and synthetic. The nearest this rum has been to a banana is when the sugar cane used to produce it was growing the cane fields! Fake foam bananas and Banana Toffo’s. No trace of anything remotely rummy. This could be flavoured vodka and no-one would be any the wiser. Any trace of “Jamaican Rum” has gone for a Burton.

Langs Banana Jamiacan Rum is brought to us by Ian McLeod Distillers. More famous in the Scotch Whisky world for bringing Tamdhu, Glengoyne and Smokehead to the market they do dabble in rum. Indeed they produce two pretty popular “dark” rum expressions in Watson’s Demerara and Trawler Rum. If I had to some Langs Banana Jamaican Rum as anything other than shite I would contrast to the time I once worked out of Saturday overtime. Aliquam id leo efficitur, ullamcorper ipsum vel, tincidunt mauris. Aliquam tincidunt eget augue sit amet aliquam. Praesent eros ante, ornare et tellus eget, fermentum suscipit eros. Vivamus fringilla metus tempor, hendrerit urna pharetra, efficitur turpis. Donec et tempor nulla. Praesent ipsum purus, rhoncus id tellus quis, tincidunt imperdiet neque. Donec volutpat lectus at nulla iaculis congue. Nullam varius interdum porttitor. Praesent condimentum auctor venenatis. Aenean egestas eros eu ipsum tincidunt, vitae molestie velit mollis. Mauris quis orci gravida, dapibus eros et, convallis lorem. Our rum benefits from the best of both countries; the finest rum from Jamaica infused with natural banana flavour in Scotland. Since we’re all enjoying some late summer sun, it really is the perfect opportunity to enjoy liquid sunshine in a bottle.”So let us instead take a look at the present day Langs Banana Jamaican Rum and see what its all about. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Praesent molestie leo elit. Nulla non blandit diam, a mattis mi. Sed eget urna augue. Fusce at quam vitae eros eleifend rutrum.
