This rum is made from both the flesh and the rinds of Victoria pineapple, handled separately. The fruit is cut by hand; the flesh infuses in Planteray Original Dark, while the rinds are steeped in Planteray 3 Stars and then distilled again with the rum. The two liquids are then blended and rested in casks. The rum base comes from Barbados, Jamaica and Trinidad.
The idea came from Alexandre Gabriel and spirits historian David Wondrich, drawing on an 1824 pineapple rum recipe. The name recalls Reverend Stiggins from Charles Dickens' The Pickwick Papers. It is bottled at 40% and suits a Daiquiri.

Pineapple and peach with fine vanilla and geranium notes.
