Launched in late 2018, Rockstar Spirits is the creation of Tom Hurst, who launched the brand after a 20-year career in the more corporate side of the drinks industry. Boasting both the Two Swallows and overproof Grenade range of rums, Hurst kickstarted Rockstar Spirits with Pineapple Grenade, a spiced rum weighing in at 65% ABV. Its portfolio now includes seven flavoured rums, all featuring spirit from the Diamond Distillery in Guyana. Hurst made headlines when he appeared on Dragons’ Den in June 2021, receiving bids from all but one ‘Dragon’. Next on the agenda, we’ve heard he’s looking beyond rum, so watch this space.
