A Spiced Rum Journey

Hands up who is always living in the future, looking forward to the next adventure, dreaming of when life will finally be perfect? That was us, three years ago. Living in London, three beautiful children, loving life but not actually really loving life. Always looking for something else. London wasn’t giving us everything we wanted and needed.

Tristan’s career in animation, although successful, was never stress free and long hours of commuting had taken their toll. I had abandoned my career in advertising in favour of staying home with our children, but I was desperate to get back to work, and couldn’t see how at this stage.

We had always talked about starting a business together but had made excuses for why we couldn’t.

We took a decision in 2018. We had been talking about moving out of London for ages. A pipedream. We decided to make that dream a reality.

We looked at many areas (still accessible to London, we hadn’t gone completely mad…comfort zone and all that) and finally settled on an amazing village in Buckinghamshire, moving there that summer. We loved it instantly. After a few months of finding our feet, the chat turned from houses and decorating to new businesses.

After several weeks of celebrating our new move, with cosy nights in sampling a range of spirits and cocktails, we had an epiphany. We love spirits, we are self-confessed spirit connoisseurs and we love making cocktails for friends. We even met each other in a bar!

Our chat soon turned to rum and more importantly spiced rum. Spiced rum that you can buy in a supermarket, we had realised after some extensive research, was mainly throat burning and highly unpleasant even when served with a mixer.

We knew spiced rum had the potential to be so much better, and was something of an undiscovered treat. That was our moment. Our Rockfall moment. We decided to create a spiced rum that is so smooth it can be served just with ice.

So that’s what we did. Rockfall Botanical Spiced Rum, best served on the rocks. Our rum is for the bold explorers amongst you, the adventurous risk-takers who will stop at nothing to discover the extraordinary. So be prepared to witness your own Rockfall moment, that moment when everything comes together perfectly.
