Billed as being "The Spirit of St Lucia" with the island's profile on its label and the phrase "Our Island Our Bounty", this rum is the top-selling domestic gold rum and is widely distributed around the Caribbean.

Bounty rum was originally launched in 1972 as 'Denros Bounty Rum' after the merger of the old Dennery Distillery and the Roseau Bay Distillery. It is made from a blend of 100% Coffey column still rums aged for 2 to 3 years in American oak ex-bourbon casks.
