What is Vapoura Rum?

Vapoura Rum is a luxury English rum crafted entirely in England. We focus on quality, craftsmanship, and attention to detail to create a premium spirit experience. Our rum is an embodiment of British craft, blending tradition with modern flair.

What makes Vapoura Rum different from other rums?

Vapoura is built from the ground up in England, with no imported rum or blending, no additives, sugar or colouring. We craft in small batches with careful cask finishing, managing every stage of the process. This gives us absolute control over the quality and consistency of the rum we produce.

How does Vapoura compare to Caribbean rum?

We have huge respect for traditional rum-producing regions. Vapoura isn’t trying to replicate them, we’re offering something different. English provenance, full production transparency and a more contemporary flavour profile and brand world. Less as a replacement, more as a new perspective.

Where else can I buy Vapoura?

You can purchase through select retailers, including Daylesford Organic, Master of Malt, Soho Wines and Amazon. Our rum is also available at Drink with Sasha, Amathus Drinks, and various independent retailers. You can enjoy Vapoura at an ever growing list of top bars and restaurants, such as The Mandrake, Restaurant Story, Eve Bar, and more.

What’s the difference between Chapter One and Chapter Two?

Chapter One is our bourbon cask aged spiced rum, bright, warm and expressive, designed primarily for cocktails.

Chapter Two is our Pedro Ximénez cask aged gold rum, richer, smoother and more complex, created for sipping or stirred drinks. Each representing a distinct drinking moment rather than just simply a different product.

Which bottle is best for cocktails?

Both Chapter One and Chapter Two work well in rum cocktails, just in different ways. Chapter One shines in modern mixed serves. Chapter Two excels in spirit forward classics.

What’s the best way to drink it?

Neat, over ice or in classic spirit-forward cocktails like an Old Fashioned or Espresso Martini.

How is Vapoura Rum made?

Our process is deliberately slow and craft-led:

Natural fermentation (5 days) using dual yeast strains for layered flavourDouble distillation in copper stills for precision and characterCareful spirit cuts to define the final profileSmall cask maturation (50L barrels) to accelerate depth and complexity

Every decision is made to maximise flavour, not speed.
