The Rum Company’s TONKA TONKA, at 40% ABV in a 0.7-litre bottle, is an exceptional flavoured rum speciality that combines exotic spice, maturity and artisanal precision. This creation was developed by the Rum Company in close collaboration with the renowned spice expert Ingo Holland from the ‘Altes Gewürzamt’ in Klingenberg. The aim of this collaboration was to identify the ideal tonka bean to refine a long-aged rum with an intense yet elegant aroma.


The tonka beans used come from the tonka bean tree, which grows mainly in northern South America – particularly in Brazil – but also in Trinidad and in tropical regions of Africa. The seeds of this tree are known for their distinctive fragrance, which evokes notes of vanilla, almonds, caramel and marzipan. In TONKA TONKA, the tonka beans are deliberately used to lend an already matured rum additional depth and complexity. This gentle flavouring process results in a distinctive spirit that combines the classic structure of rum with exotic spice, setting it apart from the mainstream.
