We have five bottles of Merser & Co. Double Barrel Rum to give away, which means that five lucky winners will find themselves with a bottle! How? Read on…
When we found ourselves with five bottles of Merser & Co. Double Barrel Rum, we thought, why not make five rum lovers very happy? Tasty rum, and lots of it. What could be better?
First things first, what’s so special about Double Barrel Rum? Well to start, it’s the first rum blending house in London in over a century. The rum itself was distilled all over then Caribbean, and then shipped to London to be blended by the Merser folks. It was then simply been rested in oak, with not a hint of sugaring or colouring to be seen here, just like it would have been in the 17th century.
Plus, this isn’t just a pretty bottle (though we’re not denying that either). The dimpled glass mirrors the River Thames, where rum used to be transported, and the hound and post logo is a nod back to days gone by when Londoners would recognise it and follow it to find their way to merchant houses. Kind of like a treasure hunt, only with booze at the end.
You could win this very bottle from Merser & Co.!
