It’s an absolute, undisputed fact that all Cornish people have pirate blood in their veins. Every one of us is a descendent of Blackbeard, Redbeard or Bluebeard and in each of our grandmother’s loft there is an old tattered map that leads to hidden treasure. We instinctively enjoy the odd sea shanty, we are naturally drawn to parrots and we’re rather partial to a tipple of whiskey and rum.

It is for this reason and this reason alone we stock 18 different  whiskeys and a wide array of rums. You see, we have a theory that your favourite Whiskey or rum reveals which Pirate you are descended from.

If Barcadi Spice Rum is your drink of choice, then Bluebeard must be at the top of your family tree.

If Jack Daniels is what floats your boat then we think Blackbeard must be your great, great, great, great, great grandfather.

It’s not scientific and it’s not even accurate… but when the drink is this good, who cares?

So come and sample our huge range of rums and whiskeys and discover your (totally made up) Pirate heritage at The Bowgie Inn, Crantock.
