Review: Bounty Lime Rum

Bounty Lime Rum was launched October 2017 and introduced in the US in 2018.  The Bounty rum brand was established in 1972 as the principal brand of St Lucia Distillers, a united venture created when the last two distilleries of St Lucia merged.  They also released their white, gold, dark, spiced, and coconut flavored rums for sale in the US initially on a limited basis as they build distribution.  Bounty Lime Rum starts with the Bounty White rum base made from double column distilled Guyanese molasses.  The rum is aged in once used bourbon casks for two years.  The wood colors are filtered after blending.  Natural lime sugars and flavors are macerated with the rum at 80 proof.  Distilled water and natural sugar are then blended to reduce to 50 proof.  Bounty distills, blends, and bottles their rums on site in St. Lucia.  Read more »
