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.

Summer garden

A gin I cannot buy on the high street.

“A citrus gin that barely shows up in the States. Spirit Hives listed the botanicals, I ordered a 700 ml, and it became the house G and T. Not cheap. Completely worth it.”
Hannah W.Contemporary gin
Case order

The case made more sense.

“I drink the reposado enough that a single bottle was a habit. Switching the option to a case at Spirit Hives dropped the unit price and I stopped running out mid-month.”
Carlos M.Reposado tequila, 6-pack
Tasting night

Tequila I finally sipped.

“An anejo, neat, orange slice, no shot glass. Friends scoffed until the second pour. Two of them have since ordered their own from Spirit Hives.”
Diego V.Anejo tequila
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.”
