    Origin and history

    Spiced rum, a beloved spirit rich in history, originated in the Caribbean during the 17th century. Originally, rum was infused with spices like cinnamon, vanilla, and clove to enhance its flavor, making it more palatable. This practice was likely started by sailors who mixed rum with spices to preserve it during long sea voyages and to improve its medicinal properties. Over time, spiced rum evolved into a popular commercial product, with various brands adding their unique blends of spices and flavorings. Today, it remains a favorite choice for cocktails and sipping, celebrated for its robust and warming spice profile.
