Black Pig Ilha do Pessegueiro - Rum

The Black Pig Rum

According to legend, Ilha do Pessegueiro (The Peach Island) is a mythical place full of pirate stories and serves as the inspiration for this rum from Portugal. This creates an intense rum influenced by the spices brought along the historic trade routes by the ancient Portuguese sailors as they explored the remote lands in Africa and Asia. The taste is rounded off with botanicals from the Alentejo.

With this rum, we are reinventing a classic drink, as authentic flavors from Portuguese seafaring history combine with the contemporary character of the Alentejo to create a distinct character....

An incomparable Black Pig Rum for unforgettable moments, reminiscent of Portugal and the Alentejo.
