Award-Winning Excellence: No.57 Overproof Rum Earns Silver at the World Rum Awards
Date: April 29, 2025
We’re proud to share that our No.57 Proof Strength White Rum has won a Silver Medal at the World Rum Awards 2025—a prestigious recognition that celebrates excellence in global rum-making.
A Year of Milestones
This marks the third major accolade for No.57, having also received awards at the London Spirits Competition and the International Spirits Challenge (IWSC). It’s a testament to the passion, precision, and consistency behind every drop we bottle.
What Makes No.57 Stand Out?
Bottled at 57% ABV (British proof strength), this white rum is distilled from molasses and praised for its bold yet refined profile. Judges at the IWSC highlighted its:
- Complex notes of olives and roasted banana
- Creamy, fruit-forward mouthfeel
- Delicate balance of intensity and smoothness
Crafted Sustainably
Behind the bold character of No.57 lies an equally bold commitment to sustainability. As part of our circular economy approach, we:
- Save over 500,000 litres of water annually
- Upcycle distilling by-product into organic crop nutrition
- Reduce emissions and energy use through next-gen distilling technology
Supporting British Rum
We’re honoured to represent British craft rum on the world stage. At Distinct Distillers, every bottle is a product of small-batch care, local pride, and a deep respect for tradition and innovation alike.
"No.57 is a real statement rum. It’s powerful, layered, and uniquely Distinct, it deserves every accolade it gets." Ian Hoyles, Cask Director
