Tortuga Rums of the Cayman Islands evoke thoughts of the islands’ tropical breezes, white sandy beaches and breathtaking blue ocean views. Christopher Columbus named the Cayman Islands Las Tortugas, meaning “the turtles”, for the many tortoises found on their sandy shores. The islands became a popular haunt for men like Henry Morgan and Edward Teach, infamous pirates of old. Rum was the favorite and perhaps only drink of those adventurers. Today, over 400 years later, Tortuga uses the same distilling process to create its award winning rums -- special custom blends of Jamaican and Barbados rums found no where else in the world. Tortuga Gold Unique aged oak barrel process gives this rum its deep mellow flavor and fine medium body to achieve one of the most enjoyable spirits produced in the Caribbean. Made from 5 year old rum stock. Enjoy in traditional rum cocktails, exotic tropical drinks or on ice. 80 proof. Tortuga Light Subtle flavor and delicate aroma results from the intricate process that creates this fine rum. Extracted from tropical sugar canes, it’s easy on the palate and won’t overpower mixers or colas. The perfect rum for mixing classic lighter rum cocktails – try daiquiris, rum Collins and even rum martinis, shaken or stirred. 80 proof . Tortuga Flavored Rums – The Flavorful Taste of the Islands These unusual and delicious blended rums were developed as convenient mixers for creating exotic drinks. In all Tortuga flavored rums, the flavors are infused during the blending process, allowing them to mellow and become smooth as the rums age.
