This 250 ml offering of Captain Morgan Muck Pit Melon Splash contains and showcases a spirit-driven profile rather than a traditional rum alone. The flavour mapping includes sweet watermelon top-notes, a hint of mint freshness and a subtle smokiness overlaid atop the brand’s known spiced rum base.
The bottle is designed to be eye-catching and compact, ideal for rapid delivery around Nairobi via Oaks & Corks, bringing premium flavour to your door in under 30 minutes.
Tasting Notes
Aroma: A crisp burst of juicy watermelon, fresh mint leaves, with subtle smoky undertones and a hint of vanilla spice.
Palate: Sweet watermelon takes centre stage, followed by a cool mint lift and the warm spice of Captain Morgan’s signature blend. A discreet smoke note lingers under the surface and adds depth.
Finish: Clean, brisk and surprisingly crisp for its ABV; the spice lingers but the mint-freshness keeps it modern and easy to enjoy.
These tasting notes align with the Muck Pit brand’s expression of “liquid that evokes the body of a beer but with the finish of a spirit.
Serving Suggestions
Serve chilled or over ice, ideally with a splash of soda, Sprite or a crisp lemon-lime mixer to enhance the watermelon and mint. The 250 ml format makes it perfect for “one and done” occasions or sharing small-format bottles at parties. Pair with tropical fruit skewers, watermelon slices or mint-leaf garnish for full effect.
