Domain: Privateer

Despite being renowned for its whisky and bourbon, there are still a few distilleries producing exceptional rums in the United States. Founder Andrew Cabot gave the house the name Privateer, referring to one of his ancestors. Accompanied by his team, he decided to offer rums made entirely in the United States. What sets these rums apart from others is that they use molasses that comes straight from Guatemala. The company, which is nestled in the heart of Massachusetts, carries out two lots of distillation before the vintages are aged in new American oak barrels. Aware of today’s environmental challenges, and in the interest of being open and honest, the distillery doesn’t use chemicals so that each bottle of rum can express its authentic, ancestral craft. It is in this harmonious context that the distillery offers exceptional cuvées that are rich and flavoursome, and rare rums produced entirely in the United States.
