Crossfire Hurricane is a Jamaican rum, blended from rums distilled at four of the island's distilleries, created around the long relationship between The Rolling Stones and Jamaica, and co-founded and owned by the band.

The Crossfire Hurricane name comes from the opening line of The Rolling Stones' 1968 single Jumpin' Jack Flash: "I was born in a crossfire hurricane."

Crossfire Hurricane Reserve is a blend of rums for four Jamaican distilleries combining pot and column distillates, different fermentation styles, aged and unaged components.

Blending across the four distilleries allows funky high-ester rums and tropical-fruity rums to be tempered by softer and more structured rums.

A little age brings elegance to this characterful Jamaican rum, but it hasn't lost its funk!
