Not for the faint-hearted, Hell Smoked Rum is a Caribbean rum aged in an Islay whisky cask with fresh scotch bonnet and bird's eye chilli, smoked chipotle and ancho chilli, and cacao nibs. The packaging describes it as a "face-melting blend of fire and smoke", as well as "like being stung in the face by a bee!", so there we go, you know what you're getting yourself into.
BBQ smoke, dark chocolate, and earthy, sweet, fiery chilli spice.
Got brought this as a gift and have since brought again for myself. Neat over ice it is stunning and want to try in some cocktails at our next party. The smokey flavour works perfectly with the fresh chilli heat.
I dont drink much rum and impulse bought this. By god does it deliver. Sweet, rich, chocolatey and spicy all wrapped up with excellent peat smoke notes. Will undoubtedly be a fixture in my house going forward.
Wasn’t sure if this one would be a bit of a gimmick but boy I was wrong. It’s both spicy and smokey but still utterly sippable. Don’t get be wrong if you are no good with heat it’s one to miss but if you like your chilli’s this has to be given a go. Defo one I’ll be restocking.
Exactly what it says it is and great to have a properly spicy Rum. You get all the fresh chili, smoke and hints of chocolate. If you love your peaty whisky I would give this a go as well.
