You can win the ULTIMATE Privateer Rum Pack personally signed by legendary Distiller Maggie Campbell!

The Rum Pack

The Privateer Letter of Marque ‘True Spirit of 1776’

Firstly – the Privateer rum company can directly trace it’s origins to the swashbuckling mercenaries of the American Revolution – the Privateers. The Privateer ‘True Spirit of 1776’ is steeped in history being made by a direct descendant of the Privateer Andrew Cabot. The spirit is made from a distilled, 100% molasses wash, aged in a single virgin American Oak barrel with a #3 level char for 3 years. This distillation gives detailed aromas, a tight and linear structure, a pliant texture and a long finish. The rum was harvested in Autumn 2020 and the result, The True Spirit of 1776 was bottled at a cask strength at a cracking 109.8 proof (54.9% ABV).

How to change your monthly Rum order

Let’s Get Started

This gives our members a quick overview on how to change your monthly Rum order.

Everything happens on your Rum Subscription page under the My Account section of the website…change your order, update payment and address details.

Firstly, you need to be an active member of the Rum Tribe…if you are not, head over to JOIN.

The Rum of the Month email always goes out on the 1st of each month, no matter what day it is.

This email details the Rum of the Month and any Members Extra rum available for the month, including their pricing, tasting notes etc.

The way the Club runs is that the Rum of the Month is an opt-out product and anything else in an opt-in product. So if you want the Rum of the Month…do nothing, sit back and your rum will magically appear at your door. Anything else, read on.

Starting the Month

From the 1st of the month you should see the panels for both the Rum of the Month and the available Small Batch (Members) Extra. By default the Rum of the Month is set to ‘Yes’ (and your default subscription quantity) and the Small Batch Extra set to ‘No’. You can also see the ‘Next Rum Month’ processing date (which is always the 5th of a month).

Changing Your Order

You can easily add the Small Batch Extra by selecting ‘YES’ to Add this Rum in the panel? You can change the Quantity of either Rum as required. If you want the Small Batch Extra but not the Rum of the Month, select ‘NO’ on the Rum of the Month selection (and YES on the Small Batch Extra). All changes will be displayed in your monthly order below the Product Panels.

If you choose ‘No’ for each Rum you are SKIPPING the month entirely. You will see a pop to confirm, and if you select YES, your monthly order is skipped.

Your Next Rum Date changes ready for the next month and you are charged nothing for the month. Plus you will get a confirmation email of your SKIP.

Where is the Cathedral of Rum?

Did you know that there is a ‘Cathedral of Rum’?

The Bacardi Rum Distillery in Cataño, Puerto Rico, is known as the “Cathedral of Rum.”

Visitors to the factory — said to be the largest premium rum distillery in the world — can choose between a historical tour, a rum tasting tour, or a mixology class, each of which provides an overview of the company’s process and history.

You can also ‘Bottle your own Bacardi’ at the Distillery. Yes…A special hands-on experience, you can hand fill your own bottle directly from the barrel on site where the exclusive rums are crafted.

Casa Bacardi (the factory’s formal name) also features the signature drink “Cuba Libre,” or rum and Coke mixed with lime. Bacardi claims the drink was invented by American soldiers in Cuba during the Spanish-American war. Bacardi itself was founded in 1862, when Don Facundo Bacardí Massó purchased a distillery in Santiago de Cuba. Bacardi’s lighter rum mixtures were a hit, and the company flourished even as it was forced to relocate. Today Bacardi is a liquor giant owning more than 200 brands, including Grey Goose vodka and Bombay Sapphire gin.

Sounds like a fun trip!
