Marauda Steelpan Rum takes its name from the people of Trinidad, who took the foreign oil drums on their island and turned them into an instrument known around the world for its unique sound.
Steelpan is an authentic English style blend of cask strength mature rums from Trinidad, Guyana, and Jamaica, each distilled and aged according to tradition, with no additives and no colorings. All the rums are aged in 53-gallon bourbon barrels, each made of American white oak and used only once.
The blend begins in Trinidad with a column still rum, aged 3 years. This is the base that allows the notes of the blend to form a melody. From there it goes to Guyana to add a column still Demerara rum, aged 3 years, bringing a slightly heavier, distinctive body to the blend. And finally, to Jamaica, finishing Steelpan with a heavy, pot still rum, aged 3 years, that gives the blend its “funky” depth.
