This rum is intended as the perfect Mai Tai rum, although it is good for so much more. A blend of high-ester rum from Jamaica with a rarer, molasses-based grand arome from Martinique, this bottle aims to replicate Trader Vic's rum blend for the Mai Tai circa 1951, when his original choice of Wray & Nephew 17 ran out. This was reverse engineered with the help of Smuggler's Cove's Martin Cate (San Francisco) and historian David Wondrich (Brooklyn), amongst others.
