Product Information

They also have a silver, dark, and gold rum which work perfectly mixed and a pineapple rum which if you want to see some cocktail suggestions for, just reach out to myself and I’ll be happy to talk all things rum with you. It all started in 1740, when Admiral Edward Vernon enforced a reduction in the strength of the British Navy’s rum ration. Pruning at the wrong time of year can put trees at risk from silver leaf disease, which can also eventually kill the tree. However, Old J brings Vernon´s concept into the 21st Century by using the finest Caribbean Rum combined with our secret blend of spices, sugar, vanilla and Persian lime.

The second part of its botanical name – avium – refers to birds which play a role in the tree’s propagation by eating the cherries and dispersing the seed. It took over sixty trials before the perfect harmony of ingredients was found, and Old J’s smooth and spicy flavour profile was born.

Not as sweet or spicy as the original, but with a big whack of vanilla in the mix, it is the perfect spiced rum for real rum enthusiasts or people who like the idea of rum, but are not a fan of dark alternatives.

Traditionally, cherries were planted for their fruit and also their wood which was used for making cask hoops and vine poles. The flavour and colour is far from subtle, but Old J Cherry’s rounded fruitiness also works brilliantly in a range of cocktails, like our very own Cherry Bake Punch, or simply mixed with cola. All you need to do is stick some white chocolate in the microwave, heat it up in batches till its fully melted then dip some cherries half way into the chocolate.

Following some serious upset among his men, Vernon suggested that they improve the taste of their liquor with sugar and lime juice and the inspiration behind Old J’s unique recipe was born. Admiral Vernon's Old J is a rum-based spiced spirit drink, and this particular edition is infused with 11 flavours, including pineapple and vanilla for a tantalisingly tropical delight! While it can add an extra element to many cocktails, it's particularly good for light, summery, rum-based drinks like a Mojito, Mai Tai or Pornstar Martini. Lemon sorbet in particular works great because of the acidity but you can also try coconut sorbet which I find to work great. Wild cherry is susceptible to bacterial cankers which can disfigure and occasionally kill infected trees.Created with cocktail enthusiasts in mind, it is designed to add some heat to your mixology but also makes for a real fire-in-the-throat shot experience. The origins of Old J date back to 1740, when an admiral decided to enforce a reduction in the British Navy's much-loved rum ration. However, the heavy spicing of the other Old J styles have been toned right down to allow the more subtle, un-aged white rum to shine. What you’re going to do is use a toothpick to prick little holes all over your cherries, then soak them in a jar with Old J Tiki Fire overnight.
