History
The Soggy Sailor is a drink whipped up by our head bartender, Jake Rogers. This cocktail has all the classic tiki flavours without as much of a heavy booze-kick as many of its cousins. With such simple ingredients and method, the Soggy Sailor is great starter drink to recreate at home too.
Rum’s association with sailors and seafarers is a strong and historic connection, rum has been produced in the Caribbean and South and Central America, since their colonisation by Europeans in the 16th and 17th centuries. French, English and Spanish settlers, already familiar with distillations processes, began using the region’s abundant crop of sugar-cane to produce spirits and various styles of rum were born through the new world.
