KFC has teamed up with Halewood Artisanal Spirits-owned Dead Man’s Fingers to create a limited-edition rum blend, 11 Herbed and Spiced Rum. The new bespoke blend is inspired by KFC’s renowned 11 secret herbs and the Cornish heritage of Dead Man’s Fingers’ spiced rum. While KFC’s recipe is secret, Dead Man’s Fingers has revealed that the new rum is balanced with herbs and spices including black and white pepper, together with KFC's freshly fried golden breading. Infused with Dead Man’s Fingers’ spiced rum, the new spirit provides notes of caramel, vanilla, treacle toffee and nutmeg.

The new spirit is available to purchase now for a limited time on The Drop Store and Amazon sites.
