Best rum – taste tested

Rum is a spirit made from sugarcane; most are made using molasses, while agricole-style rums are made using sugarcane juice. The origins of the spirit can be traced back to the Caribbean sugarcane plantations of the 17th Century with plantation owners squeezing the crop for every last penny, distilling the byproducts of sugarcane production into rum. Fast forward to the modern day, and we have rum of different colours, styles, and flavours. Dark rums get their colour from barrels during the ageing process, white rums are typically unaged and colourless as a result. With regards to strength, there are navy proof and overproof rums; the former clocks in around 57% ABV, the latter coming in above that. Each style has its merits, some are more useful for cocktail making, others are best enjoyed neat or on the rocks. Whatever your preference, we’ve rounded up the finest rums for any occasion or budget. Best rums at a glance Best Jamaican rum : Appleton Estate 12 Year Old, £44.99 Be...

Best pie dishes in 2023

Pies have earned a place in our hearts for being the ultimate comfort food. Whether you love sweet pies with lashings of cream or custard, or if savoury pies with gravy are your thing, this versatile bake has been around for thousands of years and isn’t going anywhere. Pies come in many forms, the pastry can be shortcrust , filo , puff or suet, or your pie can be topped with potato. Then there’s the question of whether to make a pie with pastry on the top, bottom or both. The pie dish you choose can have a big impact on your baked pie and there are just as many to choose from as there are pie variations. We tested a sample of the latest pie dishes against criteria that assessed their cooking ability to evenly brown the pastry, release the pie from the dish and other practical factors including dishwasher , microwave and freezer -safe credentials. We used the dishes to make a classic apple pie with a moisture-rich filling to particularly test the dishes’ suitability for browning a ...
