History

The Rum Old Fashioned is a modern twist on one of the world’s oldest cocktails, the classic Old Fashioned. While the original dates back to the early 1800s in America, swapping whiskey for rum reflects the creativity of bartenders adapting tradition to tropical spirits. This variation has gained popularity for its smooth sweetness and lively character, adding a fresh island warmth to a timeless formula. The Rum Old Fashioned invites drinkers to rediscover the classic in a new, vibrant way.
