Under a layer of dust and mould, they found a batch of rum bottled in 1780, making it the oldest rum still in existence. At auction in 2014, the last 16 bottles sold for £135,000 (US$ 175,000).

HonkyTonk is the ideal place to for private hire whether that be personal or for business.  Our ethos is always directed towards wines and making wine more approachable to our customers to enjoy wine with no airs and graces but to appreciate good wine and a story behind the label.  This will no doubt take us around the world, with different producers giving a different feel and perspective to the wine industry.
