Myers’s Rum

Myers’s Rum carries over a century of authentic Jamaican heritage, first produced in 1879 and now recognized as one of the most distinctive dark rums globally. It is made using only pure Jamaican molasses and a blend of up to nine rums distilled via both pot and continuous stills before maturing for up to four years in white oak barrels. The result is a deep, reddish-brown rum with inviting aromas of blackstrap molasses, coffee, toffee, and a subtle layer of ripe pineapple, underpinned by notes of hazelnut and allspice. On the palate, it unfolds with a buttery entry and pronounced flavors of caramel, tobacco, leather, honey, dark chocolate, raisin, and fig, balanced by a hint of oak and smokiness. The finish lingers with decadent dark sugar and smoky, woody undertones. Myers’s Rum is regarded as bold and robust—a favorite for mixing in classic tropical or tiki cocktails, such as Planter’s Punch or Mai Tai, where its depth adds authentic flavor, and it is also beloved as an ingredient in desserts and savory recipes. While too fiery for most as a sipping rum, its powerful profile makes it an essential bar staple for cocktails or culinary uses that call for true Jamaican rum character.
