rediscovering
heavy pot still rum
Lost Spirits earned a name for itself in whisky. Several of Lost Spirits expressions won prestigious titles rarely conferred on American distilleries including World Whisky of the Year in 2019. However, for Lost Spirits Las Vegas, co-founder Bryan Davis decided to draw inspiration principally from the age of sail. Heavy English Rums (made similarly to single malt whisky) fell out of favor in the 20th century. We decided to spend the past few years exploring the drink of pirates and empire. What we found was extraordinary and we are eager to share it with you.
