Myers’s Rum as recognisable a Dark Rum as Bacardi Superior is a White Rum. World Famous proclaims the bottle and for once this isn’t marketing hype.
Myers’s has been in production since 1879. It is a blend of up to 9 continuous and pot stilled Jamaican rums. It is aged for up to 4 years in small oak barrels. The rum is produced by National Rums of Jamaica Ltd (Long Pond/Monymusk Distilleries) and is bottled by Myers Rum Company in Nassau, Bahamas. The front of the bottle states that is the company which succeeded Fred L Myers of Kingston, Jamaica. The rear of the bottle states that the rum was imported into the UK by Fred L Myers and Son Co. London. The brand overall is owned by beverage powerhouse Diageo.
