Product Information

Co-founder of the business, former St Austell Brewery marketing director Jeremy Mitchell, said: “Having worked in drinks marketing and hospitality for much of my career, I’d always wanted the opportunity to start up a new business and create a brand from scratch. In 1880 Henry Weston first started crafting cider from the bitter-sweet apples grown on his farm in Much Marcle, Herefordshire.

Made from fine Guyana and smooth eight-year-old Barbados rums, the bespoke blend is infused with Seville oranges, vanilla, cloves, ginger and cinnamon. While many products like to tell you how old they are, we are proud to tell you how new we are. Reflecting a modern, no-compromise, approach to drink quality, we felt that something special needed to be created for the sambuca category – one that nobody was exploring after being distracted by the gin and rum bubble. Jeremy: After 16 years working in drinks marketing, I was ready to spread my wings and start my own business. Matt and I got together as we had a shared vision of creating a spiced rum.
