We’re a Buckinghamshire distillery crafting rum the proper way—from start to finish. While many UK distilleries buy in bulk rum to rebrand or spice, we do it all ourselves: fermenting organic panela, distilling, maturing, and bottling. No shortcuts, just pure, authentic rum.
We are not a supermarket shelf brand that produces the same from-the-factory flavour year after year, each small batch is a new experiment in hand crafted quality rum. And, unlike the big drinks companies, this diversity is not a bug but a feature.
We distil using a direct gas fired 600l copper alembic pot still. Our distillation process gives us a unique flavour profile that sets us apart from the rest. It’s no wonder our first ever publicly released rum won a silver award 87 points, at the 2023 London spirits Competition.
Just like the Cane Rat, we are resilient and determined. We are a truly independent distillery making small batch spirits, with a passion for experimentation.
The genus Thryonomys, also known as the cane rats, are large, strongly built rodents that feed on roots and stems of reeds and other grasses, including sugarcane
