Cut To The Overproof Rum

Cut To The Overproof is a bold, high-proof spiced rum built on real Jamaican pedigree. Crafted with pot-still rum from Worthy Park—one of the island’s historic estates—and infused only with natural spices, it delivers authentic Caribbean character at 69% ABV. Made for rum lovers who demand depth over additives, this overproof blend brings bar-quality power and precision to serious cocktails and celebratory pours.

Tasting Notes & Experience

Rich aromas of caramelised sugar and tropical fruit lead to a powerful palate of molasses, dark chocolate and warm baking spice. Full-bodied and complex yet surprisingly smooth for the strength, finishing long, spicy and satisfyingly warm.

Craftsmanship & Story

Cut partners with Jamaica’s Worthy Park—cultivating cane and distilling on estate since 1720—to source characterful pot-still rum, then blends in the UK with only natural spices (vanilla, peppercorn, cinnamon, aniseed, coriander seed, nutmeg). The result is a no-nonsense, high-impact rum made for modern cocktail craft.
