We use a blend of unaged and aged rums from Dominican Republic, aged rumfrom Barbados and unaged pot still rum from Jamaica to give Karisimbi Golden Rum it’s complexity. Some of the aged rums are up to 5 years old.

Tasting Notes: Rich dried fruits, butterscotch, burnt sugar and caramel with a hint of vanilla and orange.

We found everything we do on the principles of social responsibility, sustainability and conservation. This bottle is made from 100% consumer recycled glass and, through our donations to The Gorilla Organization, each bottle you buy helps protect and conserve the endangered Mountain Gorilla population.

Show your love for animals and the natural world in an unexpected way: by sipping on premium quality drinks from Gorilla Spirits. 

From spiced rum, to coffee liqueurs, to a super smooth vodka, this do-gooding distiller crafts small-batch, award-winning spirits at their HQ in Hampshire. 

As their name suggests, Gorilla Spirits supports the conservation of mountain gorillas. These gentle giants are an endangered species, at serious threat of extinction. 

But small increases in their numbers look promising and that’s down to the hard work and dedication of governments and conservation organisations. The Gorilla Organisation is one of those, working with communities at the forefront of gorilla conservation in Rwanda, Uganda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. 

By donating £1 from every bottle of their drinks, Gorilla Spirits is supporting the good work of The Gorilla Organisation, from the field workers in Africa to the fundraising and communications team in London. They nickname this donation a GAT – “Gorilla Added Tax.”

So every time you savour a glass of Gorilla Spirits, you’ll be making a difference to this iconic endangered species and the people fighting the threats they face.
