Born to Rum – Discover a Caribbean revival

Tagged: ,

L ong before tiki glasses or cocktails topped with bright paper umbrellas hit the scene, rum was a cultural power player. The quintessential New World spirit, rum has colonial origins that well predate other liquors of the Americas, such as bourbon or American whiskeys.

In its 400-plus years of production, this spirit has been everything from currency to political trump card, and not only its history is complex. Today, rum may be best known as the single most-mixed liquor in the bartending world, but many distillers are returning to the libation’s rich history of refined production by creating aged, specialty, and hand-mixed rums that even the most sophisticated liquor connoisseur can enjoy.”*
