Rum from Cornwall

Our Cornish spiced rums begin with fire. At Mounts Bay Distillery, we ferment and distil our rum ourselves at England’s only wood-fired distillery. Our copper pot stills are heated over a real wood fire, with every distillation tended by hand.

We start with grade A molasses, Cornish water and a blend of yeasts, including wild yeasts. Open fermentation comes before fire distillation, followed by cask ageing and the careful blending of spices and botanicals.

Across the range, allspice, cinnamon and vanilla meet ingredients from closer to home, including local honey, sea berries, seaweeds and coastal herbs. Each recipe has its own character, rooted in our hands-on approach to making rum on the Cornish coast.
