Cockspur 12 Bajan-Crafted Rum
Cockspur 12 Bajan-Crafted Rum is made from the oldest rums kept on reserve at our distillery outside Bridgetown, Barbados. Following initial aromas of dried tropical fruits, the quality barrel aging becomes evident with bourbon-like whiskey notes, toffee, rich vanilla and powerful oak. Its full, robust body is complemented with a velvety warm oakiness that lingers in your mouth. Cockspur 12 is best sipped neat or on the rocks.
Cockspur Fine Rum
Cockspur Fine Rum has a brilliant golden amber colour and a mixture of aromas: brown sugar, butter rum, dried fruit and island spices. Its rich, full and smooth body leaves a beautiful, lingering taste of gentle oak and warm spice. Cockspur Fine is great combined with your favourite mixers or in cocktails and is equally enjoyed on the rocks.

Valentine Vodka Review
The nose of Valentine Vodka is strong ethyl alcohol – smells like household cleaner and lemon. The entry has a nice hint of sweetness to it that brings out a more pronounced spicy mid-palate. It falls apart at the tail end of the mid-palate with an unbalanced structure and a surprisingly long finish with a wicked burn. Valentine Vodka has one of the more unpleasant finishes we’ve tasted in a vodka.
Oola Gin
Oola gin has a complex and aromatic nose of citrus and rose perfectly balanced with a subtle scent of juniper berry. On the palate the citrus and floral notes come through first followed by coriander and cardamom on the mid-palate. The lengthy finish shows hints of caramel and vanilla, reminding us that this gin was made with a base of Oola Vodka.
Deco Coffee Rum
TweetDeco Coffee Rum Now members of Portland’s Distillery Row, owners Lenny Gotter and Bill Adams started Deco Distillery in 2008 from the ground-up, developing the company mission and recipes around their passion for distilled spirits. Deco Coffee Rum brings out the strong flavor of coffee, but leaves out the sweet! “As vanguards, we take our [...]
Oola Vodka
Oola vodka is clear with a beautiful nose of citrus with hints of peppers surrounded by layers of vanilla. Supple and smooth with a medium-full body and a long, clean finish of lemon zest, orange peel and caramel. This vodka is perfect for citrus oriented cocktails such as a Vodka Gimlet or in a stand alone cocktail such as a Vodka Martini.
Heavy Water Vodka

The bottle is quite unique as it was designed with the help of professionals from around the world: Sweden, Norway, France, Italy, the U.S., and New Zealand. The glass bottle is made in France and the rod in the bottle is made of high-tech composites from Italy.
The Old Mill Gold Rum
“Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum.” Old Mill Rum is a fascinating rum, but the packaging would never let you find it and buy it. The rum is distilled and aged in St. Croix, Virgin Islands. The bottle is nice, but the label is not the greatest quality.

Master Distiller Todd Leopold uses other botanicals such as orris root, hand-zested Valencia oranges, cardamom, coriander, and hand-zested Pumellos. Leopold Bros.
