The Rum Trail: Barbados – The Birthplace of Rum
Barbados proudly claims the title of the birthplace of rum—a spirit deeply woven into the island’s identity and global legacy. With centuries of craftsmanship and some of the world’s oldest rum distilleries, Bajan rum stands for elegance, balance, and tradition. It’s not just a beverage here; it’s part of the island’s cultural fabric, poured at celebrations, shared in roadside rum shops, and sipped quietly as a sign of hospitality and heritage.
