Rum is steeped in a rich history and culture. From its beginning in the sugar cane trade to the bloody decks of pirate ships, and the rum runners of the prohibition rum has often been a choice spirit of the rebel. Today we may think of myotis on the beach or the elaborate concoctions at the local tike bar. Thunderbird Rum sticks with tradition using black strap molasses and aging in bourbon barrels as they have done for centuries on the islands.
