There are a variety of colours and styles of rum
available, so finding the best style of rum for the
cocktail you’re making, or the best flavours to pair
different rum styles with can be tricky,
but this guide is here to help!

To help you choose the best rum for your

flavoursome cocktail, we’ve separated 4 styles of
rums into 4 distinct flavour groups that guide you

you are looking for something spicy, herbal or
riotously fruity, you’re sure to find a rum you like.
