Bayou Rum is an award-winning, handcrafted American rum, which is produced from fresh Louisiana sugarcane. It is then distilled using methods which are state-of-the-art technology for steam and temperature control. They are then bottled to a high standard of quality assurance at the largest rum distillery in the U.S.A.
The bottles are beautifully designed and the contents of both rums are as smooth as smooth gets!
Silver Bayou Rum (80 proof) is “pure, smooth and flavorful from LA sugarcane.” The nose is powerful. It almost takes your breath away. A nice vanilla scent is very strong.
