The story behind it
The maker
Founded in Kingston, Jamaica by Fred L. Myers in 1879, the brand became famous for its genuine dark Jamaican rums. It remains a historical benchmark of Jamaican rum production, known globally for its rich molasses-driven flavor profile.
How it is made
Myers's Rum is produced from pure Jamaican molasses, distilled in both traditional pot stills and continuous column stills. The rum is aged in white oak barrels to develop its signature dark hue and complex caramelized body.
