A bottle of Blackwell Black & Gold Rum can be spotted in Bond's Jamaican house in a promotional photo from the No Time To Die set - and we can now confirm that in the film James Bond drinks the rum while talking to Nomi (Lashana Lynch).

Blackwell Rum is owned by Chris Blackwell, a legend on Jamaica, best known for discovering Bob Marley and also the owner of Ian Fleming's former residence GoldenEye, now a holiday resort, where Fleming wrote the Bond novels. The same location was also used for the No Time To Die movie announcement in 2019.

Chris Blackwell worked on the first James Bond movie Dr No, as well as the latest film No Time To Die: "James Bond has been a big part of my life, from my childhood lunches with Ian Fleming at GoldenEye to being a location scout on the first movie, Dr. No (1962). It was a pleasure working alongside the No Time To Die production team in Jamaica providing our iconic rum for the set in James Bond's house, which has made this very special relationship come full circle. This is a rum that celebrates Jamaica, my friendships, and also my family legacy."

The Fine Jamaican Rum is inspired by Chris Blackwell family's time-honored recipe, and distilled and blended by J.Wray and Nephew. This aged, rich and fragrant dark gold rum is filled with the warmth and sensuality of Jamaica.

A regular bottle of Blackwell Rum is available for $29.99 / £25 / €28.90 at the Blackwell Rum online shop or at The Whisky Exchange (UK, Europe, USA).

Comments

I've gotten and tasted the 007 Limited Edition release of the Blackwell Fine Jamaican Rum it's worth pointing out two things: (1) this is a higher-end, more flavorful version of the regular Blackwell Rum; it's not just a different bottle. I found it much more "agreeable" in mixed drinks than the regular Blackwell rum. I have no regrets about the bottle I bought and may still get another bottle while they're still available. (2) my bottle had no QR code on it.
