I looked on line for a different Rum…

I looked on line for a different Rum experience and came across the The Rum Company . Fantastic choice of Rums and realistically priced. Most of the choice I hadn’t seen or tried so I ordered three different bottles and the gift set that gave me four small samples . I must say the Mutiny spiced rum is delicious and can be drunk without a mixer and just over ice. Delivery was swift and I will definitely going back to purchase some more and may even joy the rum club
Thanks

The perfect 50th gift from a caring company

I ordered a bottle of House of Rum Barbados 2010 (70cl, 60.5%) from The Rum Company for my mate’s 50th birthday, and I couldn’t be happier! The delivery was super quick, it arrived in just two days and it was perfectly packaged in pristine condition. You can tell they really care about what they do.

The website was brilliant, super simple and easy to navigate, full of great options and it made finding the perfect 50th gift effortless.

It’s great to see a UK-based small business delivering this level of quality and service. We should all be supporting businesses like this, passionate about what they do, reliable with expensive purchases and genuinely customer-focused.

Highly recommend and I’ll definitely be ordering again!

Exellent customer service experience

Ordered some rum as a gift and the service and rums were both excellent. I realised I should have selected the quick delivery option, so contacted Rum Company and they changed it super quickly, meaning my friend received their gift in time. Very easy to deal with - highly recommend

Delivery

Ordered without any hassle.
Informed of delivery schedule.
Only criticism is Royal Mail, unable to rearrange another delivery due to Royal Mail App unable to accept login etc and phoned Customer Service they were unwilling to assist.
Thankfully able to pick up from Post Office.

Good buying experience

Website was easy to use and delivery was within anticipated timeframe. Legends Gift Box arrived in perfect condition and the presentation is impressive! Ideal for a gift. Sadly I can’t comment on the contents as not for me!

Great service

Great service. I ordered one day and it was dispatched the next. I have had Dark God before which I love so I had to buy 2. First time trying Beckfords Black Pearl. Even though it wasn't quite my taste it did grow on me. It is quite sweet while I prefer my rum to be more smoky
