Why give out sugared almonds when you can gift your guests custom Beckford’s Rum minis?

Mr & Mrs Dams chose our White Pearl coconut rum for their wedding, and their guests LOVED them – not a single bottle was left behind

If you would like to feature our delicious mini rums on your wedding tables, please get in touch by emailing lesley@zenexperiential.co.uk to discuss your bespoke special day gifts. We would love to hear from you!

Beckford’s Rum was delighted to have a promotional stand at one of the world’s most famous historic motorsport events – the Goodwood Revival – a wonderful celebration of iconic cars and fashion.

Needless to say, Beckford’s Rum was hugely popular and hundreds of people of all ages, many in historic uniforms and classic car clothing, came to sample our delicious range of blended rums and whiskies.

As Beckford’s makes such a wonderful selection of flavours and strengths (from 25-65% ABV), which are loved even by people who don’t usually like rum, deciding which of the range to choose can be tricky. One solution is to buy them all and many left the stand with multiple bottles, both for themselves and to share with family and friends at Christmas, which should be very merry indeed!

Beckford’s is delighting rum fans across Europe, North America and Asia, as it expands international sales to Germany, Japan and Canada, with further interest from importers and distributors in Ukraine, USA and France.

Caramel Rum is now on sale in The British Shop in Germany and Japan placed its first order for the whole of the Beckford’s Rum range for sale in Ginza, Tokyo’s most famous upmarket shopping, dining and entertainment district.

In Canada, LCBO supermarkets and retailers are stocking Beckford’s Pineapple Rum and further orders are in the pipeline for the USA, France and Ukraine.

Maroon Rum Cans

Beckford’s Rum attends hundreds of events across the UK every year, including the annual Royal International Air Tattoo, where our rum is always very popular with pilots, crews and visitors.

We were delighted to be visited by pilots from the Italian Air Force who were performing at the show, including an MB-339 jet display to mark the team’s 65th anniversary. 

Beckford’s 65% cask strength Maroon Rum proved so popular that the team came back three times to buy more.. Saluti a tutti!

Beckford’s Rum brand owner Lesley Astley and her son Lester were invited to Japan by the UK Department of Business & Trade to meet and network with Japanese drinks importers and distributors in Osaka and Tokyo.

The trip was a great success and we are delighted to be shipping our first consignment of Beckford’s Rum to Tokyo.

The lucky winners of our May and June draw for a case of delicious Maroon Rum Punch were Jacqueline Barlow from Coventry and Thomas Warkcup from Buckinghamshire.

We hope you enjoy your cans of chilled tropical rum in the sunshine!
