Matugga Rum

Championed by

Gregor Poynton MP

Jacine is passionate about rum. Muttaga Artisanal golden and spiced rums are distilled in Scotland but crafted with African Soul.

The company and brands draw upon a rich ‘Rum Triad’ – rooted in Jamaica’s rum making traditions; showcasing the culture and flavours of East Africa; blended with Scotland’s proud distilling heritage.

With substantial ties to Uganda, Jacine’s team shares a common desire to support the livelihoods of sugar cane growers in East Africa. With this at the forefront, they are developing a sugar cane plantation on family land in Matugga that will employ and train local agricultural workers. By harvesting cane from the land and converting it into high quality distilling molasses, the company will also become a “Cane to Cask” rum producer.
