Moving all our rum transportation to high strength bulk transport - saving 772kg of CO2 in reduced transport emissions We’re looking to smash our sales targets for this year and then start our fundraise to conquer US in April.” Number one was to create an incredible rum, but one that was representative of the modern Caribbean, and that could bring new people into the market. And that could satisfy those rum nuts.” Marking National Rum Day, The Duppy Share, an award-winning rum brand produced and co-founded by musician and actor Kano,is opening up its rum-way to transport fans to a one-of-a-kind Caribbean experience in Notting Hill. If you’re not in Londona nd can;t make it to the event, have no fear, Duppy will be launching its nationwide Dial-for-Duppy hotline to meet all of your rum needs.

Alongside his business partner and former Innocent Smoothie veteran Jess, George embarked on the task of mapping out a “Duppy Taste Spider… essentially we had legs like openness, molasses, perceived alcohol, and sweetness.” To do this, they tasted and mapped about 30 different rums. “We then you know, built our own rum spider.” That last sentence isn’t one I ever saw myself typing, but makes sense right?! You can also find us in Portobello Star, 171 Portobello Road, and the Walmer Castle, 58 Ledbury Road.

Martin Lewis: What the Autumn Statement means for you – including wages, benefits, pensions, ISAs, housing, national insurance and more Premium” wasn’t a word I encountered all that often when I first started working in the spirits industry. There was expensive stuff, good stuff, and cheap stuff, but the p-word seems to crop up a lot these days. What does it mean? It all sounds a bit VIP booth at the local nightclub to me. But scratch beneath the surface and this is a far more welcoming, approachable, and even appealing descriptor, aimed at all of you with a leaning towards the tastier side of things, quality products, made with care. What is premium? Number three, “We don’t campaign for rum without sugar – as many people, like Richard Seale, do – but we feel that if you can create rum without sugar, you let the rum sing so much more. Now if you’ve read this far and haven’t tried our White or XO then I feel bad for you, so you know what have a little 15% discount on Duppy White 70cl and Duppy Share XO 70cl bottles with code “GREATTASTE”. For one week only. Go on, treat yourself to the best rum on the market and let us know what you think! You deserve it! A note from the judges: “We loved the smooth, rounded, weighty character, the progression on the palate, the warming pimento finished. Very well made, beautifully balanced.”

Son of famed broadcaster David Frost, he founded The Duppy Share in Notting Hill in 2015. The brand has since grown its range to include Duppy Share Spiced, White, XO, and most recently, Pink Ting A Ling in a ready-to-drink can (Yep – an official team-up with Ting! As a rum fan who doesn’t particularly like cola, this grapefruit soda has offered salvation in many a pub/bar where I’d otherwise suffer). With investment arriving from Diageo’s investment arm Distill Ventures in 2016, and the liquid consisting of a blend of rums from Jamaica and Barbados (more on that later), the brand got off to a promising start.

Autumn Statement: Workers to pay less in national insurance – but rate cuts don't offset the freezing of personal tax thresholds A note from the judges: “Appealingly complex, soft on the palate, mellow and flavoursome with round and generous sweet fudge against a harmonious alcohol character with a refined flavour spectrum.” Those who arrive at the event will be greeted by cabin crew members as they enter TheDuppyShare’s very-own ‘Airport’ at The Portobello Star, offering an array of Caribbean treats from food, drinks, cigars and records. Duppy Share pays homage not only to the never-ending flavour potential of rum but the essence of the Caribbean. Just as Whiskey matures, a portion of it is said to evaporate to the angels – often referred to as the Angel’s Share. However, Caribbean belief states that Jamaican spirits, aka Duppies, billow between the islands’ distilleries extracting the best of the rum as it matures in oak barrels, otherwise known as a ‘Duppy Share. Let’s talk about Duppy White for a second, this isn’t just a white rum this is THE white rum. Mr Kano himself combined his Jamaican heritage with his East London upbringing and put it in a bottle to create the best tasting White Rum on the market.
