S.B.S – Single Barrel Selection from the Danish company 1423 World Class Spirits.The UK Rum Club – UK centered rum focused Facebook group ran by 2 prolific rum bloggers, Steven James ( Rum Diaries Blog) and Wes Burgin ( thefatrumpirate).This was a collaboration between several entities: This December they are donating £1 from each sale to FareShare, an organisation focused on tackling hunger and food waste. This was part of Thameside’s post on their Facebook page: “We’re obviously struggling during these difficult times but not nearly half as much as the hospitality trade and although it will equate to giving away nearly 25% of our sales, we thought it necessary to ensure our most loved bars and restaurants will survive.”.Ī very praiseworthy stand, and they didn’t stop there. This year, when COVID struck and England entered its 1st lockdown, Thameside, a fairly small company, decided to give away £9.30 (1 hours real living wage) from each bottle sold to Hospitality Action, a charity focused on helping people in the industry.

The bottling is comprised of rums from Jamaica, Barbados and Guyana – you can read my review of it here. For now they have only one expression – Thameside Signature Blend. Thameside is a new English brand that was established in 2018 and it’s inspired by the Navy rum blending in the Dockyards along the Thames in London.
