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!
Spiced Bayou Rum (80 proof) is “infused with traditional spices with a LA twist.” The nose is rich, deep and the spices are indiscernible. It is said that there is a Louisiana influence, which is present in both of the rums. It’s true.
