Description
Black Tears Dry Spiced Rum is a Cuban-crafted spirit that blends premium rum with native coffee, cacao, and pepper — delivering a bold, dry profile with a distinctive bittersweet edge.
Black Tears Dry Spiced Rum is the world’s first spiced rum from Cuba, a country renowned for its rich rum-making heritage. Produced by The Island Rum Company, this unique expression combines Cuban rum with natural infusions of coffee, cacao, and ají dulce — a sweet native pepper — to create a dry, aromatic profile that stands apart from traditional spiced rums. With only 9 grams of sugar per litre, it offers a refined alternative for those seeking complexity without excessive sweetness.
Inspired by the iconic Cuban song “Lágrimas Negras,” Black Tears celebrates the emotional depth and cultural vibrancy of the island. Its golden amber hue and smooth texture make it an ideal choice for sipping neat or elevating classic cocktails such as a rum Old Fashioned or a spiced Daiquiri.
On the nose, Black Tears opens with warm aromas of cinnamon, nutmeg, and roasted coffee beans, layered with hints of oak and dark chocolate. The palate reveals flavours of caramelised nuts, black tea, and rich cacao, balanced by subtle oak spice and a gentle heat from the ají dulce. The finish is long and warming, with lingering notes of pepper and bittersweet chocolate.
Crafted for discerning drinkers, Black Tears Dry Spiced Rum offers a bold yet balanced experience — perfect for those who appreciate the artistry of Cuban rum and the intrigue of dry spice.
