Shortly after Europeans arrived in North America, they began producing rum from molasses shipped north from the Caribbean. It was distilled throughout the northeast. Rum was the most popular spirit in Colonial North America and was shipped worldwide. Prohibition put an end to the American rum industry, until now. Tuthilltown Spirits ships blackstrap molasses from Louisiana for its singular HUDSON RIVER RUM. Aged in small American oak barrels, our rum has a distinctly candy-like quality. Notes of vanilla and caramel rise from the glass and intensify the longer it is left to open up in the glass. Bottles at 46% alcohol by volume, HUDSON RIVER RUM is a reminder of early American times. Enjoy it warm in winter, or with mint for a superior Mojito. The distillers recommend you sip it slowly, neat, to enjoy the full impact of this unique spirit.
