‘… When I bring the glass to my nose, I sense a light sweetness of canned peaches and apricots, a rather firm impression of vanilla. There are some light oak spices in the breezes as well as the light spiciness of orange and banana peel. Hints of tobacco and a light grassiness rounds out the nose…’
THE WILD GEESE® Rum Collection tells the story of the Irish in the Caribbean.
VOYAGES AND MEN
Ireland was torn by injustice and natural disaster. In the years leading up to the Treaty of Limerick in 1691, when THE EXILES® took the nameTHE WILD GEESE® believing they would one day return, many had already been forced from their homes and transported to the Caribbean and Americas to work on plantations.
HOLD FAST
Sent into darkness and exile they did not flinch when faced with this unimaginable horror. Many rebellions were to follow. Their story has largely been untold until now.
FREEDOM
Determined to win freedom, those that escaped, blazed a trail across the endless blue as liberators and pirates of the Caribbean. Navigating their way across the featureless seas and against all odds their only option being to survive and succeed.
‘BY THE SWEAT OF OUR BROW AND THE STRENGTH OF OUR BACKS YOU WILL KNOW OUR COURAGE’
PEACE
Wherever you are in the world, if you are of Irish descent you are part of this story and entitled to call yourself ‘Wild Geese’.
