Bounty Spiced Rum

Bounty Spiced starts where most spiced rums don't: with actual aged rum from an actual distillery. St. Lucia Distillers, the Roseau Valley house formed in 1972 that also makes Chairman's Reserve and Admiral Rodney, takes its two-year-old Coffey column still rum — the same base as Bounty Premium White — and macerates it with all-natural local Lucian spices, then bottles it at a full 40% ABV, a step above the 35% most spiced rums settle for. Bounty is "The Spirit of Saint Lucia," the island's best-selling rum, and the spiced version follows the local tradition of buying rum in bulk and steeping it at home with cinnamon, nutmeg, and bay. Expect warm cinnamon, clove, and vanilla on the nose with the coconut-and-vanilla character that runs through the whole Bounty line underneath, opening into a rounded, gently sweet palate of brown sugar, baking spice, and dried fruit with a genuine rum backbone, finishing warm and smooth. Honest note: like all spiced rums it's built for mixing, and the profile is classic rather than radical — but the real aged base and the honest proof put it well above the pirate-on-the-label competition. The island serve is Bounty Spiced and Coke; it's also a natural in a Dark 'n' Stormy, a hot buttered rum, or a spiced daiquiri, and at the price it's an easy upgrade for any bar cart.
