Classic Rum collection

The mission of John Barrett and Bristol Classic Rum is to seek out rare and exceptional rums from individual estates in the Caribbean. These rums are offered in extremely limited quantities, sometimes only a single barrel from a single still, after spending many years of careful maturation in damp, dark cellars on the British mainland.

The rums are bottled straight from the cask at their optimum strength without chilling and with only light filtration; this preserves subtleties of bouquet and taste. As each bottling is limited, our offering changes throughout the year so please do not hesitate to contact us if you need further clarification on the range we are currently listing. These unique rums are an excellent addition to a spirits list and offer a real point of difference. While all the rums can be enjoyed with a mixer, the top end bottlings are best enjoyed alone as one would enjoy a malt whisky or good cognac.
