The last spoonful of Christmas pudding, in a bottle. Medjool dates and dark treacle, steeped into our British rum base and bottled at 49% vol. Rich rather than sweet — the dates bring their own sugar, and the strength keeps the finish clean.

Tasting notes

Sticky medjool date and dark treacle, finishing like the last spoonful of Christmas pudding.

How to drink it

Neat, after dinner, in place of pudding. Or alongside a hard, salty cheese — which sounds wrong until you try it.

🍸 Cocktail Ideas

Date and treacle want either sharpness or cream. Pick a side.

  • Sticky Toffee Old Fashioned — 50ml, bar spoon of demerara syrup, two dashes of bitters
  • Sticky Date Toddy — 50ml, hot water, clove-studded orange slice
  • Christmas Pudding Flip — 50ml, whole egg, 15ml cream, grated nutmeg
  • Treacle Sour — 50ml, 25ml lemon, 15ml sugar syrup, shaken hard
🧀 Serving & Pairing

The label suggests cheese, which sounds wrong until you try it.

  • Neat, after dinner, in place of pudding — the label's own serve
  • Alongside a hard, salty cheese
  • Over Christmas pudding instead of brandy butter
  • With sticky toffee pudding and a jug of cream
  • Warmed gently and poured over dates and mascarpone
🌿 + 🍯 Infusion Method

Dates are stubborn. They need time, and a bit of heat behind them.

  • Medjool dates and dark treacle folded into our British rum base
  • Left to steep until the dates surrender their sugar and their colour
  • Bottled at 49% vol, unchilled and unfiltered
  • Numbered by hand, 001 through 150
Sticky Toffee Old Fashioned

Sticky Toffee Old Fashioned

Pudding in a rocks glass.

  • 50ml Sticky Dates
  • 1 bar spoon demerara syrup
  • 2 dashes Angostura bitters
  • 1 large ice cube
  • Strip of orange peel
Steps
  1. Stir over ice for thirty seconds — the dilution matters here, it takes the edge off the treacle. Strain over one big cube. Twist the orange peel over the surface and drop it in. The pudding note only shows up at the very end, which is exactly where you want it.
Sticky Date Toddy

Sticky Date Toddy

For the walk back from the pub in December.

  • 50ml Sticky Dates
  • 150ml hot — not boiling — water
  • Slice of orange studded with two cloves
  • Teaspoon of honey, if you like
Steps
  1. Warm the glass first with a splash of hot water and tip it out. Add the rum, then the water, then the orange. Leave it a minute before you drink it — the cloves need that minute to come out of the peel.

Christmas Pudding Flip

Rich, and not for the faint-hearted.

  • 50ml Sticky Dates
  • 1 whole egg
  • 15ml double cream
  • 10ml sugar syrup
  • Freshly grated nutmeg
Steps
  1. Shake everything hard with no ice first, for a good fifteen seconds, to get the egg going. Add ice and shake again until the tin is frosted. Strain into a small chilled glass and grate nutmeg over the top. It lands somewhere between a cocktail and a pudding, which is the point.

How we make Sticky Dates

Medjool dates, not the dry ones

Medjool is the sticky, almost toffee-ish date, and it is the only one that gives this much back in a spirit. The dry, pressed ones look like a saving until you taste what they leave behind, which is very little.

Dark treacle, for depth and colour

The treacle brings the depth and the near-black colour, and with the dates it gives the finish its Christmas pudding character.

Numbered, corked and sealed by hand

Bottled at 49% vol and numbered one at a time, No. 001 through No. 150, at our distillery in Hailsham. When the last number is written, the batch is finished for good.

Sticky Dates FAQs

Does it taste like Christmas pudding?

It finishes like the last spoonful of one, which is the bit worth having. Date and treacle carry it all the way through, and at 49% it stays a rum rather than turning into a dessert sauce.

Is it very sweet?

Rich rather than sweet. Dates bring their own sugar, so little is added, and the strength keeps it dry at the finish. Closer to a good aged rum with pudding notes than to a liqueur.

Cheese, really?

Really. A hard, salty cheese — an aged cheddar, a pecorino, a wedge of Comté — does the same job with this that it does with a sticky sweet wine. Try it once before you decide.

When will my bottle arrive?

This release is not open yet. When it opens you will see the exact dispatch date on this page and in your confirmation email before you pay. Please note we do not ship part orders — if you order a Limited Release alongside other items, the whole order travels together once the release is ready.

Will you make more?

No. This is a Limited Release: one batch, 150 numbered bottles, and that is the end of it. Other flavours will follow in the series, but Sticky Dates will not be repeated.

Any sediment?

Possibly, and that is the mark of a real infusion rather than a fault. Shake it gently if you like.
