Blending rums from different regions brings together unique flavours to create a complex and harmonious spirit. The multi-origin signature blend used in our Spiced rum, featuring rums from Central America, Trinidad, and the Dominican Republic, showcases this craft perfectly.
Central American (Nicaraguan) rum is known for its rich, full-bodied flavour with notes of vanilla, caramel, and a hint of spice, thanks to the volcanic soil and tropical climate where the sugarcane is grown.
Trinidadian rum often brings a lighter, more floral profile with subtle hints of tropical fruits and a smooth finish, reflecting the island’s long history of rum production.
Dominican rum adds depth with its well-rounded, slightly sweet character, often featuring notes of toffee, dried fruits, and a touch of oak from ageing in barrels.
When these rums are blended, they create a base rum that is both versatile and flavourful, making it an ideal foundation for our Spirited Union Spiced.
Inspired by the ways in which top chefs, chocolatiers and mixologists combine flavours. We’ve infused the finest botanicals from the land into a smooth cask-aged rum. Rounded off with a touch of Añana salt from the sea for a signature flavour.
Añana sea salt is harvested from the ancient salt flats of the Añana Salt Valley in the Basque Country, Spain. Sourced from natural springs, this salt is exceptionally pure and rich in minerals. Hand-harvested using traditional methods, it forms delicate, flat flakes with a clean, intense flavour. Celebrated for its unique texture and taste, Añana sea salt is a favourite among top chefs and food enthusiasts.
Time and care go into infusing our signature cask-aged rum, with responsibly sourced vanilla. To extract all the flavours out of these sundried vanilla pods, we use a flavour infusion method we call maceration. For each botanical, the alcohol percentage, volume of botanicals and extraction time, varies. Our vanilla macerates for almost 2 months to extract all the aromas needed to make Spirited Union Spiced Rum.
Spirited Union was founded as a standalone brand named “Union55” When owner and founder Ruben Maduro created the first rum recipe – behind his home kitchen counter – he started hand blending, bottling and selling from a tiny distillery in Amsterdam.
As trade started embracing this new approach to rum, he opened the current distillery in Amsterdam and re-named the brand “Spirited Union” which symbolises the union between rum and botanicals and celebrated the opening of our spirited home: the distillery.
While the flavour profile of our original recipe has stayed the same over the years, our ingredients and production methods evolved. This year, in 2025, we have decided to go back to the original composition of this rum and re-introduce the original recipe as Spirited Union Spiced
