Discover Puncheon Rum:
Discover this Puncheon Rum and get it delivered to your door. Puncheon rum is a heavy-type rum made in Trinidad and Tobago with a high percentage. Forres Park, Caroni, and Stallion are three local brands that produce bottles that are 75 percent alcohol by volume. The manufacturers of Caroni Puncheon Rum are reported to have created the first puncheon rum around 1627. The term ‘Puncheon’ comes from the large wooden casks in which the rum was stored, known as ‘puncheons.’ In the 17th century, the first rum distillation took place on Caribbean sugarcane plantations. Molasses, a by-product of the sugar refining process, may be fermented into alcohol, which was first discovered by plantation slaves.

Rum is a distilled spirit made primarily from sugarcane juice or molasses, offering a diverse range of flavors and styles. It can be produced using either pot still or column still distillation methods, resulting in various textures that range from smooth to rich, and light-bodied to full-bodied depending on the style and aging process.
This versatile spirit can be unaged, known as white rum, or aged in barrels to develop deeper flavors found in gold and dark rums. The aroma profile typically includes sweet and fruity notes with hints of caramel, vanilla, and spice; tropical fruits and coconut may also emerge based on the aging conditions. Rum is commonly used in cocktails such as Mojitos, Daiquiris, Pina Coladas, Rum Punches, and Mai Tais, making it a staple in both casual gatherings and sophisticated mixology.
