Sailor Jerry
Sailor Jerry is a spiced rum created by the famed tattoo artist and sailor 'Sailor Jerry' Collins. This is perhaps our favourite spiced rum, it makes an incredible spiced mojito!
We know that some of you out there aren't so keen on the new Sailor Jerry recipe. You can correct the flavour of the new version very easily by adding some dark sugar and vanilla essence to the bottle and giving it a good shake - it really does work!
Vanilla spice, butter, oak, cinnamon, nutmeg and ground ginger. Drying and sweet on the palate with notes of winter spice and black pepper, toffee.
I had been adding a touch of vanilla to it lately without realizing they changed the recipe, assuming my taste had changed to favour it a bit more. It's better that way. They should have left well enough alone.
I discovered Sailor Jerry's Spiced Rum years ago in a Weatherspoons in Leeds (Whilst on a stag do) on national pirate day. I tried it and fell in love, it was beautiful... fast forward years later and what have they done - it has lost what made it special - I can't bring myself to drink this, closest thing I've found is Lambs Spiced Rum, so i'll stick with that until they come to their senses and change this back.
Has always been my favorite rum. Rum Howler cites Cruzan's Single Barrel as their best rum, which I agree with. However, as far as affordable, great quality Rum goes, Sailor Jerry beats them all. Kraken, Captain, Admiral are obviously all horrible. Sailor Jerry Rum, and the history that you experience with every sip, whether mixed or straight makes you wish you were sipping it sitting on a beach, or more importantly sitting in a chair getting new ink.
I like it?
Listen, the new recipe is fine and better than fine; not as overly sweetened, more subtle vanilla, and on the whole better balanced. A much more usable, less niche-y product. Try it.
