We're a small distillery in Coleorton, and Leicester City is the biggest name in the county, so when the chance came up to work together on a rum, it wasn't really a hard decision.
Why 1884
1884 is the year LCFC was founded, which is why our 1884 Spiced Rum and 1884 Silver Rum carry that name. It felt right to tie the rum to something that actually means something locally, rather than just slapping a badge on a standard bottle.
What makes it different
Both are built on our existing base rums, the same Silver Rum and Spiced Rum we make every week, just bottled under the 1884 name for this partnership. Same distillery, same process, same rum, with Leicester City's name attached to something we're genuinely proud of.
Who it's actually for
Foxes fans, obviously, but also anyone who wants a rum with a real story behind it rather than a made-up one. If you support the club and you drink rum, this is about as close to a direct answer as we can offer.
We're a two-person operation with a dog called Gino, working out of a unit on a farm in Coleorton. Landing a partnership with Leicester City still feels a bit mad to us, and we don't intend to stop being pleased about it any time soon.
Please drink responsibly.
