Welcome to Rum Compass

Showing you the way, one sip at a time!

Why Rum compass? I firmly believe there is a Rum for everyone, you just might not have found yours yet. I want to help you find yours and show you the way. I have been enjoying Rum for many years and have learned a lot along the way and want to share this knowledge to help everyone. I also remember a little poem;

“May your anchor be tight, your cork be loose your rum be spiced and your compass be true.”

To me this is about the truth (although I do enjoy some spiced rums). I agree  with the saying in the Rum community ‘drink what you like but know what you are drinking’. More and more people are expecting the truth from brands regarding the contents of their Rums. I am hoping to help you navigate your way around!
