The Transcontinental Rum Line is a series from La Maison Du Whisky. Comprised of rums from different distilleries, that have been partially matured in their tropical homes before being shipped across the Atlantic Ocean for further maturation in Europe. While this may sound convoluted, it's actually very cost effective as it prevents the greedy tropical angels from getting quite such a monstrous share of the precious spirit.
Line #25
With the production of sugar at Worthy Park in Jamaica's St Catherine Parish starting in 1720, it would seem from records that rum production began in the area not long after. Due to the falling price of sugar, the estate had to stop distilling rum in 1960, but has since improved farming methods and has now become extremely efficient at sugar production; thus meaning that in 2005 they were able to resume rum-making. As a brand-focused company, Worthy Park often ask independent bottlers to avoid using the name of the distillery on their labelling so that they can strengthen and reserve the name for only their own bottlings.
