For three centuries, salt cod and lumber left Atlantic Canada’s shores on a perilous journey for the West Indies, the ships returning with “hogsheads” of rum in their holds. This proud trading tradition lives on with our Sea Fever Rum. Craft-blended and oak-matured in our distillery on the historic Guysborough harbour, it captures the unique spirit of Nova Scotia’s Authentic Seacoast.

Sea Fever produces three premium rums:

Sea Fever Amber

We patiently mature our Amber Rum in wooden barrels by the sea to impart notes of oak, vanilla and fruit to the spirit. Moving from aromas of toasted oak, tropical fruit and vanilla to fig and caramel in the taste, it’s a distinct rum with a depth of flavour. Delicious neat or in a mixed drink, it’s rum made in the finest tradition, inspired by the sea.

Sea Fever Coffee Maple

We add organic, fair trade Full Steam™ Coffee, local maple syrup and a hint of licorice to create a premium flavoured rum that is uniquely Nova Scotian. Maple sweetness is balanced with coffee, licorice and notes of fig and vanilla for a distinctive taste that’s delicious over ice, in a specialty coffee or mixed in your favourite coffee liqueur cocktail.

Sea Fever Spiced 

We add fig, aromatic cinnamon and vanilla, and a hint of citrus to create a one-of-a-kind, premium spiced rum that captures the seagoing tradition of spicing rum. Smooth and balanced with a subtle sweetness, Sea Fever™ Spiced Rum has a distinctive taste that will make it your daily ration, whether served straight or mixed in your favourite cocktail.
