Jack Ratt Lugger Spiced Rum
Our Jack Ratt Lugger Spiced Rum is based around the historic part of the UK where our winery is located and the chronicles of the notorious smuggler, Jack Rattenbury.
Award-winning in both liquid and design, our Lugger Rum reflects the character of its namesake. Unlike most commercial spiced rums, our Lugger Rum is not defined by an overpowering vanilla characteristic.
Instead, we wanted to bring a full spice profile to the palate, which is why we age Caribbean rum in bourbon-charred oak barrels right here in our Devon winery. Once it has been aged to perfection, we spice it with a blend of nutmeg, cloves, orange peel and a hint of vanilla.

Jack Ratt Lugger Spiced Rum
Devon’s first spiced rum
Our Jack Ratt products are named after notorious local smuggler Jack Rattenbury. With this in mind – and given the West Country’s smuggling history, our passion for making the finest, innovative drinks and the growing consumer appetite for aged spirits, spiced rum seemed like the next irresistible challenge for our team of winemakers.
The name ‘Lugger Rum’ originates from the name given to the fishing boats that Jack Ratt would have used to smuggle contraband into Lyme Bay in the 18th Century. Fast, agile, and often painted black, these Luggers were almost impossible to catch under the cover of darkness.
Unlike most commercial spiced rums, our Lugger Rum is not defined by an overpowering vanilla characteristic. Instead, we aimed to create a rum that offers a full profile of spices. As a result, we’ve aged Caribbean rum in bourbon-charred oak barrels right here in Devon before spicing it with nutmeg, orange peel and cloves, as well as vanilla.
