Cape Cornwall

In 1925, mysterious bottles of alcohol were discovered built into the walls of the Bollowal Farm cottage. Legend has it that to avoid high government taxes, rum and other goods were often smuggled into Cape Cornwall by boat and stored in a farm building known as “the Wink”. These rums now honour that legend by lovingly ageing, mixing and spicing our specially selected and imported Caribbean Rums.
