Serving & pairing

White rum suits Daiquiris and Mojitos; aged rum deserves a neat pour. Pairs with jerk chicken, tropical fruit and banana desserts.

Does “dark rum” mean aged rum?

Not necessarily. Colour can come from oak ageing or from added caramel. Look for an age statement or the words “aged” or a year count; “Navy”, “Demerara” and “Jamaican” describe style and origin rather than age.

Rum for cocktails

They said no age statement.

“Other shops would have fudged it. Spirit Hives wrote that there was no age statement and priced it like one. I trust a shop that tells me what the producer did not print.”

Housewarming

Vodka that is not just vodka.

“A Polish wheat vodka, almost creamy. The country filter on Spirit Hives is a small thing and it is why I found it instead of grabbing the usual bottle.”
Anya P.Polish wheat vodka
Tasting flight

Half bottles, five rums, one winner.

“The half-bottle shelf let me pour a flight without buying five full bottles. Guests voted. The winner is now a Spirit Hives regular on my shelf.”
Laura G.Rum minis
Anniversary

Cognac for a quiet anniversary.

“Thirty years. No party, one glass each by the fire. The XO from Spirit Hives was warm, long and unhurried. That was the evening.”
Samuel O.XO Cognac
