Pronounced ‘Pirate’, this rum is a blend of rums distilled in pot stills on the West Indian island of Anguilla and other Caribbean islands. Pyrat age their rums in a combination of French Limousin oak casks and ex-bourbon barrels.

Legend (and the brand’s marketers) has it that C J Planter, was a young English sailor who jumped ship in the late 19th century, fell in love with and married a young girl on Anguilla, a British Dependent Territory in the West Indies. The girl was reputed to be the illegitimate daughter of a prominent island grower, who treated Planter like a son. When the old grower died in a mysterious fire at his plantation house, the estate transferred to Planter and his wife, who built the island’s first rum distillery.
