We like to think we’re a pretty open-minded bunch here at The Spirits Business – we’ll try anything once. But even we have our limits. Here, our editorial team shares the cocktails that we’d rather swerve when we’re sipping at the bar.

Brothers Louis and Bruce Goddard-Watts founded Sly Dog Rum in 2020 with the primary motivation of modernising the spiced rum category, which the pair felt was stuck with a cheap, low-quality image. Together, the siblings sought to create a premium spiced rum that broke free of the stereotypical pirate imagery associated with the category.
