The Spirit of Saint Lucia!
Bounty rum is produced by St. Lucia Distillers which is located in the scenically beautiful and agriculturally rich valley of Roseau on the Caribbean island of St Lucia. Bounty, “The Spirit of Saint Lucia” was established in 1972 as the principle rum brand of St. Lucia Distillers, a united venture created when the last two distilleries on the island, the Dennery Distillery and Roseau Bay Distillery, merged. Bounty rum captures and conveys the island’s most dynamic and festive qualities, which stem from Saint Lucia’s traditional and cultural roots. Their rums are a blend of column still rums from molasses predominantly from the Dominican Republic. They are known for their clean and soft mouthfeel and wonderful character, ideal to be enjoyed in your favorite cocktails.
Committed to innovation and quality, the passionate team of blenders, engineers, technicians, and administrative staff work together to produce some of the world’s best rums and rum products. They pride ourselves on our enthusiastic dedication to quality product development and offer a variety of rums and rum products from premium rums to liqueurs.
Bounty Premium White is clean with a silky mouthfeel, making it an ideal mixing rum. It has been aged two years in oak giving it soft tannins from the wood before being carbon filtered to remove the color extracted from the oak. It is clean with fresh tropical citrus on the nose. Flavors of marshmallow and lime zest on the palate mingle with a crème brûlée on the finish. It is a 100% column still rum, aged 2 years in ex-Bourbon casks. The wood colors are filtered after blending.
As Saint Lucia’s most popular rum, Bounty Premium Gold is famous for its wonderful light butterscotch aromas and candied fruit nose. While Saint Lucian’s love to enjoy this rich, buttery rum with Coke, it makes a delicious Daiquiri or Old Fashioned as well. The opening palate begins soft, with rich raisin fruit and a hint of honey and vanilla spice from aging. Medium-bodied with ripe sultana fruit, vanilla from the oak, and a hint of spice. Balanced and clean with a pleasurable lengthy finish. It is also a 100% column still rum, matured 2 years in ex-Bourbon casks.
