Jamaican Rum

Jamaican rum is one of the most distinctive spirits categories in the world and tends to deliver big aromatics, real texture, and a flavour profile that stays present in cocktails rather than disappearing behind citrus or sugar. 

Most Jamaican rum starts with molasses, but the island is famous for what happens next; extremely long fermentation. Traditional methods can involve longer fermentations and processes that build higher-ester character. In practical terms, that can show as ripe tropical fruit, pineapple, banana, spice, sometimes a savoury or earthy edge. Not every Jamaican rum is "funky", but Jamaica is one of the places where rum can taste unmistakably like itself.

Jamaica is also home to some of the most talked-about distilleries in rum: Hampden, Worthy Park, Long Pond, Clarendon and Appleton Estate, among others.
