SHANTY SPICED RUM
Immerse yourself in a luxurious blend of barrel aged rums from Barbados & South America. Fourteen exquisite botanicals including Pepper Dulse, the “Truffle of the Sea” and Cacao & Ginger guide you on a complex, sensory voyage to the treasures of the deep.
SHANTY VODKA
This evocative small batch botanical vodka offers you an experience like no other. An expertly crafted intricate blend of five hand-foraged organic British seaweeds create stunning undercurrents of umami flavour. This subtle depth of flavour is further enhanced by ripples of wasabi, galangal, yuzu, bergamot and sea buckthorn dancing on the surface.
Each botanical vodka is separately vacuum distilled to extract and retain the freshness that nature intended. Finally, we add a pinch of Dorset sea salt to re-mineralise the purest of water with which the spirit is cut. Let your taste buds take the plunge and transport yourself directly to the water’s edge.
THE SONG OF THE SEA
Crisp like an ocean breeze.
The sea breathes new life, every day.
Its magic we have captured,
A secret we’ll never give away.
To celebrate the love we have,
We hunted more than most.
Discovering hidden treasures,
Nestled along our coast.
Many flavours were tried,
Naturally seaweeds won the day.
And yuzu gave us sparkle,
Like sunlight touching waves.
Now, where’er I go,
The coast, she comes with me
This is Shanty.
The Song of the Sea.
