Origins & Craftsmanship

Myrtle Bank Rum pays homage to the historic Myrtle Bank Hotel in Kingston, Jamaica, once the social hub of the island’s elite in the early 20th century. Today the name is used for a small-production rum project highlighting traditional Jamaican pot-still distillation.

• Distillery Source
  • Produced at Worthy Park Estate, one of Jamaica’s oldest and most respected rum distilleries, located in the Lluidas Vale region.
• Rum Style
  • 100% copper pot-still rum, a traditional Jamaican method known for producing highly aromatic, ester-rich spirits.
• Raw Material
  • Distilled from molasses, the classic base ingredient for Jamaican rum.
• Aging
  • Matured for 10 years in ex-bourbon barrels, with the casks aging in the United Kingdom before bottling.
• Marque
  • Made using Worthy Park’s WPE marque, known for producing some of the distillery’s most intensely aromatic rums.
• Cask Strength Bottling
  • Bottled at 120 proof (60% ABV) with no additives, coloring, or sweeteners, preserving the rum’s natural intensity and character.

This approach results in a rum that showcases the boldest side of Jamaican distillation—rich, funky, and unapologetically powerful.
