It’s not often you find a flavored rum that doubles as a proper digestif. But the delightful Brinley Gold Shipwreck from St Kitts is precisely that — and so much more than a simple flavored rum. It’s rich, with notes of vanilla, chocolate, cacao and coffee and a velvety texture. A very drinkable flavored rum that just makes you happy — and our Best Flavored Rum of 2014.

Blended with Madagascar vanilla extract, this flavored rum has a mild, oaky aroma, a rounded, robust vanilla-bean flavor touched with coffee and a cinnamon zing.
