Introducing - Reeftip Spiced Rum- Barcats

Mar 12, 2022

As we roll from summer into autumn we’ve got a distinctly Australian Spiced Rum based at the tip of the Great Barrier Reef, Queensland we’d like to introduce, that make delicious drinks that hero the unique flavours of our land.

But our range doesn’t just taste good – it does good. That’s because 10% of our profits contribute to regeneration of the Great Barrier Reef, protecting it for future generations.

Our signature serve should be enjoyed long and mixed with dry ginger ale and a wedge of fresh orange. We like to call this the “Reef & Dry”. If you’re in the mood for a cocktail then we’d recommend mixing up a Native Mojito, a distinctly Aussie take on the classic.

We hope you are all as excited about trying a delicious new Aussie rum as much as we were to develop it! It’s mixable, produced locally with natural ingredients and will be perfect for the food and drink occasion. Make sure to try out all our combo suggestions, and if you come up with any of your own, please share and tag!
