Get to know Two Indies Rum
The story behind the naming of Two Indies Rum is a unique one. As a rare union of natural Caribbean rums from the Islands of Jamaica, Barbados, and Guyana married with Indian Pot Still sugar cane (jaggery), this rum is a beautiful blend of the two “Indies”. Both India and the Caribbean have a long history and strong reputations in the flavors they bring to the table. The rums of the Caribbean are incredibly popular, and they have gained a status as producing some of the best rums in the world. Sugarcane and the earliest production of sugar came from northern India. To learn more about Two Indies Rum and the making of jaggery, check out our blog here.
