Distilled and aged in exotic South Pacific distilleries, this rum offers an authentic taste that reflects its origins and the innovative approach of the producer.
Production and ageing:
Cargo Cult Spiced Rum has been distilled and aged in two South Pacific locations - Papua New Guinea and Fiji, bringing out the unique characteristics of these regions.
After distillation, the rum is flavoured with naturally selected spices such as cloves, cardamom, ginger, vanilla and cinnamon. All these processes, including blending and bottling, take place in Australia.

About Cargo Cult:
Cargo Cult Rum is an exceptional example of how history and cultural references can be deeply involved in the production of alcohol. The name "Cargo Cult" is based on a fascinating phenomenon that occurred on some remote Pacific islands during and after World War II.
During the war, American soldiers arrived on these isolated islands with huge supplies of supplies ranging from Coca Cola to cigarettes and medicine, which the locals saw as a miraculous abundance from heaven. After the soldiers left, the resources suddenly cut off, leading to the formation of "Cargo Cults " - cults that prayed for the return of this unexpected abundance.
The Small Batch Spirits Company, maker of Cargo Cult Rum, draws inspiration from these cults as a metaphor for their way of working: to produce artisanal, authentic and unconventional alcoholic beverages that inspire and appeal to drinkers around the world. This philosophy is the basis for their unique approach to rum production, which emphasizes authenticity and quality.
Cargo Cult Spiced Rum is an excellent choice for rum lovers looking for something beyond the usual spiced rums. Its natural flavours and lack of sugar accentuate its quality and allow its flavour profiles to shine through in all their fullness.
