Ariki Black is a premium Pacific rum, crafted in small batches and infused with a bold blend of exotic spices, citrus peel, and island botanicals. Distilled from tropical sugarcane and inspired by Polynesian culture, this dark spiced rum balances tradition with modern craft. Designed for richness and smoothness, it delivers full flavour with a warm, lingering finish.
Aroma Lush notes of vanilla, toasted coconut, clove, and caramelised sugar. Layers of cinnamon, orange zest, and oak smoke rise from the glass, creating an inviting and exotic bouquet.
Palate Full-bodied and mellow with flavours of molasses, sweet spice, burnt orange, and hints of dark chocolate. Smooth and warming, with a softly spiced finish that makes it ideal for sipping or mixing.
Serving Suggestions Enjoy neat or with ice, or mix into a spiced rum old fashioned, dark ‘n stormy, or rum and cola. Also excellent with ginger beer and a squeeze of lime.
Cellaring Best enjoyed fresh. Store upright in a cool, dark place and consume within two years of opening for optimal flavour.
