Rosalie Bay Rum: A Tasting Journey with a Purpose

Rum is more than a spirit—it’s a story in a glass. Every sip carries the essence of its origins, from the sunlit fields of sugarcane to the hands of those who craft it.

Sure, our rum costs more. That’s because every stalk of sugarcane is harvested by hand on the steep, volcanic slopes of Dominica—where mechanized farming just isn’t an option. It’s slow, hard work, but it’s also what makes our rum truly special.

At Rosalie Bay Distilling, we take this journey one step further. Our award-winning, 100% Dominican rum isn’t just about exceptional flavor—it’s about protecting the ocean that surrounds us.

A Rum Rooted in Tradition
Handcrafted from heirloom cane varieties grown on micro-scale Dominican farms, Rosalie Bay Rum is distilled with care and precision. Unlike mass-produced rums, ours is made with fresh-pressed cane juice, ensuring a depth of flavor that captures the essence of the island’s terroir. Proofed with pure mountain spring water and distilled slowly to collect only the finest hearts, this is rum at its most refined.

The Tasting Experience
From the moment you raise the glass, Rosalie Bay Rum invites you into a world of complexity and craftsmanship.

  • Appearance – Bright, crystal-clear, and luminous, a reflection of its purity.

  • Nose – A fresh and inviting aroma of sugarcane fields after a tropical rain, layered with hints of citrus zest, white flowers, and a whisper of minerality.

  • Palate – A beautifully balanced profile, starting with grassy cane notes and evolving into delicate layers of vanilla bean, fresh coconut, and a touch of peppery spice. The smooth, clean finish lingers with a gentle warmth, leaving behind a memory of ocean breezes.

  • Mouthfeel – Silky, crisp, and refreshing, with a finesse that makes it perfect for sipping neat or elevating a carefully crafted cocktail.

A Spirit with a Mission
Every bottle of Rosalie Bay Rum does more than delight the senses—it supports marine conservation in Dominica. Through our Pour to Protect initiative, 100% of our earnings go directly to safeguarding sea turtles, coral reefs, and whales. We are committed to carbon neutrality by 2027, ensuring that our craft remains in harmony with nature.
