Created by Cuban Rum Masters who immigrated to the Dominican Republic, South Bay Rum is produced in small batches, using matured rum from a wide range of handselected barrels. Each barrel imparts its own characteristic to the finished product as they have formerly held bourbon, sherry, port, wine and single malt Scotch whisky. Using the Solera method, the contents of the barrels are married for a significant period of time to obtain the rich flavors and remarkably smooth finish of South Bay Rum. It’s the precise combination of the climate, soil and ingredients, together with our Cuban Rum Master’s experienced hands, which make South Bay Rum richly rewarding and one-of-a-kind.

South Bay Experiences

“It's certainly beguiling stuff! You don't want to rush this rum. This stuff is meant for contemplation.”

Wayne Bobrow, Foodista

“There are hints of many of the casks used here — those port-driven raisin notes the strongest evidence of something out of the ordinary being done — but overall this is still distinctively rum through and through”

Christopher Null, Drinkhacker

“OK, now I really get this whole solera process thing. It really, really works and this South Bay rum is the perfect example of its success.”

George Brozowski, FBworld.com
