World Ends. Long and Smooth Finish.

January 15, 2013 by Kevin T. Keith

No.

Just . . . no.

Ron de Jeremy Spiced Rum
That’s right: “Ron de Jeremy” Spiced Rum, named after . . . you know . . .

Like its namesake, Ron de Jeremy Spiced is full of flavor. It is artfully blended with spices and all natural ingredients. The rich and deep color supports the well-rounded and complex aroma, with hints of vanilla and spices. The long and smooth finish is extremely pleasing. Ron de Jeremy Spiced is an exceptionally good mixer with cola and juices, but also great straight up.

Ron Jeremy loves his rum and is highly involved and active in promoting it; “Ron de Jeremy is great- the taste is long and full, and the finish is smooth, which suits me perfectly! And I love the idea. Ron means Rum! I am very proud of my Ron and I hope my many friends all over the world will have a chance to try it.”

What I really love is that they pass it off as some sort of artisanal product of the legendary Cuban rum-making craft:

Ron de Jeremy Rum is hand crafted by another legend, 72-year old Cuban Master Distiller Francisco “Don Pancho” Fernandez. Don Pancho is one of the most experienced and renowned Master Distillers in the rum industry today. His skills have been directly responsible for the success of countless rum brands. Don Pancho inspected his best barrels to hand pick the ones worthy of becoming Ron de Jeremy.

So drink up! You’re getting the good stuff. Don Pancho himself ensured it is “worthy of becoming Ron de Jeremy”. I can’t bring myself to imagine how.

UPDATE: I have to admit, the distributors’ response was cool (see Comments). And apparently the drink is getting good reviews at professional tastings. So I’ll give it a try and report back!

    Hey Kevin!
    Thanks for covering our Ron de Jeremy Spiced Rum. We’re not sure if you tried it or not, or if you actually focused on just commenting the quotes you posted. If you want to try it, but for some reason don’t have the possibility of purchasing it yourself, just let us know and we’ll make sure you get a sample.

    Artisanal indeed! Not only us, Ron and Francisco like our rum. Both our Reserva and the Spiced rum were some of the most rewarded rums in 2012.

    Some examples:
    International Rum Conference and Tasting Competition, Madrid 2012: Gold Medal SIP Awards 2012 Gold Medal | UK Rum Masters 2011: Silver Medal UK Rumfest Golden Rum Barrel Awards 2011: Nominated for Best New Golden Rum
    Tasting Panel Magazine August 2011: 93 points | Huffington Post: The Best New Spirits Of 2011
    SIP Awards 2012: Platinum Best of Class

    Cheers!
