Perkins & Sons Rum
Perkins & Sons spirits are all distilled from molasses by traditional Bajan processes.
Our rums start as short-fermented wash which is column and pot distilled before aging in ex-bourbon American white oak, sometimes with an exotic cask finish of sherry, port etc., and then blended to perfection.
Centuries ago we perfected molasses distillation in Barbados and its smoothness is evident in all of our expressions.
Blended from mature oak-aged spirits, Old Mill is light, smooth, and effortlessly Barbadian Single-Blended rum. With its soft fruity nose and relaxed finish, this is a rum that doesn’t shout to be heard. Best served neat or with a splash of water, it’s the kind of drink you reach for on long afternoons and easygoing evenings. A true everyday expression of Barbados rum, shaped by decades of blending tradition.
When Barbadians gather, rum is always close by; but not everyone drinks like a Bajan. For those who enjoy a quiet, contemplative pour, we’ve created 75. Aged 12 years in bourbon and Madeira casks, this blend celebrates the 75th anniversary of founder Ivan Perkins’ original Roebuck Street Barbados rum business. Balanced, elegant, and full of depth, it’s a toast to heritage, best enjoyed neat, with or without ice.
The name says it all. Sublime is a blend of column and pot-distilled spirits, short-aged in ex-bourbon white oak, then charcoal-filtered to near clarity. The result is light, smooth, and perfectly unassuming, easy enough to sip all day, on ice, with the gentlest of mixers. You’ll find a hint to its nature on the label: gold for the spirit’s warmth, black for the charcoal that defines its purity.
Hopewell Distillery
Single Batch Release No. 1
Made from blackstrap molasses, dunder and water drawn from a limestone stream beneath the distillery, this Barbados rum is distilled using a 1½ pot still method not practiced anywhere in the world for nearly 200 years. The result is a depth and complexity of flavour that no other distillation method can replicate, and a piece of living rum history. Only 400 hand-numbered bottles exist.
