I know that the shipping fee to send rums, or any spirit/liquor to the U.S from the U.K is rediculous. Your spending roughly $40 ,the price you paid for the bottle of rum and then drop another $40+ dollars to ship it back to the States...Ripoff... What can be done?

Hi Tom, I appreciate that you have to pay a high price to ship rum from the UK, but spare a thought for us poor Brits who are “ripped off” at the checkout. I have put the price of a few of the most “popular rums” we see discussed on Rum Ratings, to give you a idea of UK prices. Pounds first, followed by $ at today’s rate, £1= $1.35. Kraken Black Spiced. £ 23. $ 31. D.R.Exclusiva. 42. 56. Angostura 1919. 32. 43. M Gay XO. 38. 51. E. Dorado. 12 yo. 34. 46. Plantation XO 20 yo. 50. 67. Pyrat XO. 39. 53. I took the prices off of Amazon, who I have found to be one of the cheaper online sellers. Rum drinking can be an expensive hobby, but let’s enjoy it while we can.😉🥃 Cheers graham.

I think if you are looking to buy rum and receive it in USA you are looking for some special editions or rare bottles. I use whiskyexchange. You can start and maintain a nice collection from that website. The shipping is around 40 to more depending in your products amount and price. Highly recommend! Cheers!
