The name SKUNK hasn’t been randomly chosen. It’s inspired by the skunk – a small but unmistakable animal that is impossible to ignore. Like the skunk, which is well known for releasing a powerful scent that can’t be ignored, so do our SKUNK Rum though in a far more tempting way with irresistible intensity. When you open a bottle of SKUNK Rum, you’ll experience funky and strong aromatics, instinctively filling the room and igniting your senses.

"We wanted to bottle something untamed yet balanced. Something that doesn’t just taste – but tells a story"
The craftsmanship behind the SKUNK Rum series
The SKUNK Rum series was born from a mission to rewrite the rules of how white rum should taste, resulting in a lineup of spirits you don’t just taste – you feel.
The development of the SKUNK Rum series followed a path of curiosity, craftsmanship, and character. We dove headfirst into the world of organic yeast, each strain like a new personality waiting to be discovered. We wanted to bottle something untamed yet balanced. Something that doesn’t just taste – but tells a story. And that story begins the moment you pop the cork.
We extended the fermentation process far beyond traditional timelines — not just for the sake of experimentation, but to give the yeast time to truly come alive. In this slower, more deliberate process, the yeast isn’t rushed. Instead, it’s allowed to interact with the organic molasses in a way that unlocks bold, aromatic complexity.
As fermentation unfolds, a natural transformation begins: esters start to form. They’re born when acids and alcohols come together — and they thrive in the acidic environment we encourage in our mash. This is where the magic happens.
And we did not stop there. The rum is bottled at 69.3%, delivering an intense and full-bodied tasting experience. Thanks to the high alcohol volume, the complex aromas of SKUNK Rum truly stand out, giving you a sensory experience that makes an impact – even in the most imaginative cocktails you can dream up.
A piece of artwork inspired by jamaica
The label on the bottle is designed to spark curiosity. A colorful universe that captures the funky energy at the heart of the SKUNK Rum series. Every small detail in this vibrant artwork has been carefully chosen as a tribute to the raw creativity and culture that inspired us from the very beginning. The artwork of the label is playful and colourful with wild motives and figures dancing across the bottle. If you look closely, you will find tropical plants, animals, rhythmic shapes and mystical, almost psychedelic aesthetic creating a feeling of adventure and rebellion. Encapsulating rhythmic, warmth and intensity – just like a sip of a SKUNK Rum.
The inspiration for the artistic work on the label derives from Jamaica. In Kingston, the well-known reggae music was born in the poor yet viable neighborhoods. The musical revolution was born by pride, resistance and hope. We wanted to transfer the soul and attitude from Jamaica to our SKUNK Rum series, and to the visual expression on the bottle.
“We never do things the easy way - we do things the right way”
Responsibility and organically white rum
Molasses is a natural, dark, and sweet syrup — a thick and rich byproduct created when sugar is refined from sugarcane. Instead of letting this nutritious leftover go to waste, we transform it into something magical.
Packed with complex sugar compounds and minerals, molasses becomes a powerful flavor foundation when carefully fermented and distilled. It’s what gives SKUNK Rum its bold character and layered depth.
In the beginning of the SKUNK Rum series, we had the distillation process handled in Nyborg, Denmark. But to ensure the highest quality raw materials and to cluster our production, we’ve chosen to move our production to Paraguay — a country where we’ve found both the standards and values that align with our mission. In Paraguay, we source the organic molasses that forms the heart of our rum.
Our molasses is harvested from organic farms in Paraguay under Fair Trade-certified conditions, with deep respect for the land, its people, and the environment. Paired with our use of organic yeast, it allows us to craft the SKUNK Rum series not only organically but also with full Fair Trade certification — a mark of integrity and quality we wear with pride.
All products at A Clean Spirit’s, including the SKUNK Rum series is developed with our core DNA in mind — creating alcohol as responsibly as possible. At A Clean Spirit, we examine the entire value chain — from raw materials, suppliers, and manufacturing to transport, distribution, packaging, and sales. For every product we create, we ask ourselves: how can we make the conscious choice?
As always at A Clean Spirit, we don’t just follow the rules — we push the boundaries. That’s why the bottles in the SKUNK Rum series are made with recycled glass, and the labels are printed on 100% recycled paper.
It’s our way of proving that bold flavor and responsible choices can go hand in hand. Click below to learn more about how we work.
