TASTING NOTE

Cargo Cult source a unique blend of aged rums from the South Pacific, which are spiced with cardamom, clove, cinnamon, ginger and vanilla. The result is a fine spirit which is aged in the heat of the tropics. Standing alone in the spiced rum category, Cargo Cult doesn't contain any added sugar, allowing the rum's natural flavours to shine.

Handcrafted in small batches, by marrying rum from Papua New Guinea's Ramu River Valley, with those from the sun-drenched island of Fiji. To meet Australia's strict import and production legislation, the rums are then blended and spiced in a small winery in Orange, New South Wales before being aged for up to 3 years in ex-Bourbon barrels.

ABOUT THE PRODUCER

After 12 years with global drinks giant Brown Forman, Australian Jonny Croft identified a gap in the market and set his mind to creating the world's first craft spiced rum with no added sugar.

Inspired by the legends of the Cargo Cult, following a chance conversation with his father who was a doctor at a naval base in northern Papua New Guinea in the 1960's, Jonny spent months scouring the South Pacific in search of the perfect rums.
