Untold is a new collaborative brand of spiced rum developed by a collective of modern mixologists, bartenders and artists. Named after this inventive creative process, the result is a unique blend made with premium, 2-3 year aged golden Caribbean rum (from Trinidad), enhanced with natural spices.
Untold comes in the form of a distinctive, full-bodied, full strength spiced rum and a range of premixed spiced rum drinks made by renowned bartender Dave Kerr (The Beaufort) and his fellow Australian bartender friends Nathan Beasley (Black Pearl), Oscar Eastman (ex-Eau de Vie) and Dre Walters (The Lobo Plantation). Although the product is primarily ‘made to mix’, its real point of difference is in the bold, yet accessible flavour.
“One of our greatest achievements was creating something that balanced spice, sweetness and then finished with a delightful savoury note to steer it away from the sickly sweet rums that dominate the market, yet still keeping its authenticity,” says Eastman.
Untold bucks the traditional, masculine ‘rum and pirates’ storyline with its unique packaging design of striking, colourful, urban art created by Australian artists Andrew Archer and Tim Phibs. Instead, it becomes an attractive drinking option for both men and women.
“We see Untold as a versatile product or a ‘blank canvas’ where everyone can enjoy it their own way. However you approach your experience with it, people can contribute and shape the brand as their own. We worked really hard to make sure that it’s a quality and intriguing product. It’s balanced, works perfectly with our favourite mixers and gives people with a good palate a great alternative in a spiced rum,” adds Kerr.
Developed under the Asahi Premium Beverages umbrella, Virginia Woodger, Group Marketing Manager & Spirits RTDs at APB says, “We saw a gap in the market to show today’s rum drinker what an amazing spiced rum should be, and Untold stands out from its competition being a high quality spirit, without the overpowering sweetness and spice flavours. It provides rum drinkers with a better overall rum experience that’s attractive on every level: flavour, cost and availability.”

I just tried Untold spiced rum today and I gotta tell you guys I’m hooked, what a unique delicious change (Long time Bundy drinker)
I am over all those over sugared mixed drinks and found Untold to be a perfect blend not over powering in spice or rum but perfect in its bake up. Love the design on the cans
I was at a mates BBQ today and they all know I drink Bundy but today I turned up with 2 x 4 packs of this delicious spiced rum, I gave a couple friends a try… well 15 mins later off to dan Murphy for more. Well done to you all I wish you success
No more Bundy for this bloke……
Just bought a bottle meh
I am in NZ and have been buying the Untold Rum and Ginger Beer mixers in a can for awhile now. Sadly I am now informed they will not be stocked here anymore. Gutted. I have to say this is the best drink I have been having such an amazing flavour. Sorry I cant support you guys any longer. Im not sure if I can purchase thru you and am guessing it would be to expensive to get sent here anyways. Cheers anyways for the time I did get to enjoy this fab drink.
