Our Rums…
Kill Devil Silver Rum
Silver or white rum is rum in it’s purest form. A spirit that highlights its raw ingredients, unaltered by aging or spices, to reveal a spectrum of flavors. The molasses base of the rum comes through with hints of toasted marshmallow, creme brûlée, and vanilla with a smooth clean finish. A versatile mixing rum that also stands up well on its own.

Kill Devil Pecan Rum
Inspired by large pecan trees that tower over our distillery, Kill Devil Pecan Rum gives us the chance to utilize local produce. The honey used is sourced from our neighboring town of Wanchese while the pecans are from an orchard just across the Croatan sound in Manns Harbor. This rum has butterscotch in the nose and starts out with nutty pecan flavors giving way to a subtle honey finish that gives it body and a creamy mouthfeel. A rather pleasant byproduct of our production is a large quantity of rum soaked pecans. We have now begun to candy these pecans to create a new addition to our tour and gift shop.

Kill Devil Gold Rum
Our first flagship, barrel-aged rum. Kill Devil Gold Rum spent 18 months in a once-used bourbon barrel made from American white oak. For over a year these vessels received the effects of the Outer Banks’ varied weather and low pressure systems. These influences give the rum complex flavors of oak and bourbon and drinks buttery smooth. The barrels were obtained from Jim Beam distillery during a research trip to Kentucky. No artificial coloring or flavoring was used in the production of this rum.
