Kirk and Sweeney Burning Mast Rum

Kirk and Sweeney Burning Mast Rum – 750ml, 40% ABV

Crafted in the Dominican Republic, Burning Mast Rum takes inspiration from the rare maritime phenomenon known as St. Elmo’s Fire, when ship masts appeared to glow during storms. This spirit captures that extraordinary energy by blending 81% Kirk and Sweeney Reserva rum with 19% Reserva finished in red pepper barrels for 11–19 days, creating a rum that is both smooth and daring.
