The Rolling Stones’ New Signature Rum ‘Crossfire Hurricane’ to be Bottled by New Port Richey Distillery

Post Views: 523

NEW PORT RICHEY, Fla. – Turning out distinctive bottles of spirits is nothing new for Spencer Wolf and his team at The Point Distillery in New Port Richey. But, there’s some special rum waiting in the warehouse – 28,000 gallons for The Rolling Stones.

Within days, they’ll start bottling the new signature rum from the Stones called “Crossfire Hurricane.” The term refers to the lyrical place where Mick Jagger was born in the iconic song Jumpin’ Jack Flash.

This distillery was selected among many competitors anxious to bottle the rum. It became the drink of choice for the band when they spent time in the Caribbean, honing their music in their early days together.

Wolf stated that, in contrast to other celebrities who simply license their names, the Stones possess ownership of the rum brand and have been deeply involved in the development of both the rum and its unique bottle.

“Mick Jagger has shown immense attention to even the minutest of details,” Wolf expressed. “They desired a product that was representative of them.”

The evidence is clear.

“Inspect the back label, their signatures are present,” Wolf noted. “In this case, the tongue icon is arguably one of the most recognizable logos globally.”

To coin some titles from the Stones, Wild Horses couldn’t drag Wolf away from the satisfaction he and his team feel.

“Oh, we were beyond ecstatic. This is the most famous iconic rock band in the world,” he said.

Wolf said making the intricate bottle for a local brand of bourbon, Von Payne, helped convince the Stones to bring it to Pasco County.

“And I think it was said ‘if you can do that bottle you can do ours,’” Wolf said.

Wolf, who is originally from Great Britain, said his accent may have played a small part in it.

The Rolling Stones are scheduled to perform in Orlando on June 3. What are the chances they might come to New Port Richey to see their rum being bottled?

As much as I’d love to divulge, discretion prevents me from doing so. However, would it astonish me if they show to witness their rum being produced? No,” he beamed.

Wolf anticipates the commencement of rum bottling in the early days of December, paving its way onto store shelves about the start of the forthcoming year. He predicts a retail price hovering around $37 for each bottle.

“It’s my perception that the Stones wished for it to be economically feasible for a substantial number of their countless fans,” he expressed.
