First Impressions
The Duppy Share Spiced Spirit takes Jamaican and Barbadian rum as its base and infuses it with pineapple, kola nut, and Caribbean spices. At 35%, it's technically a spirit drink rather than a full-strength rum, targeting the accessible end of the spiced rum market.
Tasting
The nose is fruity and tropical. Pineapple leads prominently, with warm spice and kola nut adding an interesting dimension. The rum base provides gentle sweetness.
The palate is fruity and spiced. Pineapple dominates, with tropical fruit and kola nut adding interest. Caribbean spice provides warmth, and the character is light and easy-drinking at 35%.

The Bottom Line
At £28.95, The Duppy Share Spiced is a pleasant, fruity spirit drink for mixing. The pineapple and kola nut give it a point of difference in a crowded spiced rum market. Mix with ginger beer or lemonade and enjoy.
