Place rum, brown sugar and raisins in a small saucepan. Bring to the boil, stirring to dissolve the sugar, and then reduce to a simmer for 2 minutes. Set aside to cool.
In a separate saucepan, bring cream just to the boil. Remove from heat and add chocolate. Allow to sit for a few minutes and then stir until smooth.
Whisk egg whites until stiff.
Whisk egg yolks into chocolate mixture, ensuring the mixture is just warm and not hot. Mix in rum and raisins. Fold in a little egg white, and then add the remaining egg white, mixing gently.
Pour mousse into six glasses, making sure that raisins are distributed amongst each. Cover with plastic cling film and refrigerate for several hours until firm, or overnight.
