Rum in cake? A classic. Cake in rum? A revelation!

Our wild twist on parkin cake—traditionally made with oats and molasses—is elevated with wild hogweed seeds replacing ginger. The result is a sweet, earthy and malty treat with a zing of orange zest, that is then macerated in the finest demerara rum.

The amber nectar is then non chilled filtered to create a beautifully smooth sipping rum, full bodied and rich on the palate, with wisps of spice and smokiness and the unmistakable glow of rum to finish.

A true triumph that can be sipped neat or topped with ginger ale and a squeeze of fresh lime for a fantastic Dark & Stormy.

TASTE: Big, bold and well rounded. Warmth of ginger and clove with orange zest and a touch of caramelised fennel.

MOUTHFEEL: Rich, buttery and full bodied.

SERVES: Neat or over ice with an orange twist, or topped with ginger ale/ apple juice.

A cake infusion

At Buck & Birch we like to celebrate our ingredients in their truest form. Flavour extraction techniques are chosen to ensure the character of the berries, botanicals and spices remain as nature intended and not stripped of their personality.

For each batch of Rum & Cake the cake is left to macerate in our carefully selected dark rum, slowly imparting all of it's delicious, molasses laden spice into the spirit.

The rum is then slowly and delicately filtered to ensure we keep all of those beautiful oils and creaminess in the finished drink and it is this that gives Rum & Cake it's beautiful soft, buttery mouthfeel and texture

“Hogseed? Parkin?” we hear you say?
