- Description
- SC Dogs' white rum, made on the Isles of Scilly and named for a 19th-century smuggler, offers a silky, botanically inflected spirit that speaks to its maritime home. The palate showcases heather, rosemary, and cardamom alongside hay and sea salt, creating an herbal rather than fruity character unusual for white rum. Smooth and clean, it works equally well neat, on the rocks, or as a base for curious cocktails that benefit from its distinctive herb-forward profile. A tribute to local history with genuine character in the glass.
