Note from the makers: Siesta Key Spiced Rum is hand-crafted in small batches in Sarasota, Florida at our small, artisan distillery. We make our spiced rum by infusing rum with real spices and then adding honey for a bit of sweetness. We do not use any artificial flavors or sweeteners and you can taste the difference.
But don't rely on our opinion, SK Spiced rum took home the first place, Best in Class medal at the RumXP International Tasting Competition. The Caribbean Rum and Beer Festival only awarded a medal to one U.S. made rum in the year we entered the competition - Siesta Key Spiced was their top ranking spiced rum.
SK Spiced was also named one of the best artisan products in the United States by Cooking Light magazine. Wine Enthusiast magazine gave it 91 points and called it a "Best Buy". Miami New Times called it "possibly the tastiest rum in the world." The Caribbean Journal gave us the Rummy award for Best Spiced Rum of the Year for either our Spiced or Distiller's Reserve Spiced rums in 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015 and, 2016 calling Siesta Key Spiced the best spiced rum on the market. They also said that the competition "wasn't close."
Siesta Key Spiced Rum is a rich caramel color likely from the addition of honey to the rum for added sweetness. Pleasant aromas of vanilla, nutmeg, allspice, tropical fruits, and coconut are discovered and along with light brown sugar and hint of alcohol. The initial taste delivers a velvety warm entry with a little spiciness and a medium body. A blend of flavors of cinnamon, tropical fruit, vanilla, allspice, anise, cardamom, and white pepper are noted. The finish is sweet and spicy from the vanilla and cinnamon notes and pleasingly fades to memory.
