Grenadian Rums: The Heart of the Island

Grenada’s rum heritage runs deep — shaped by centuries of craftsmanship, fertile volcanic soil, and an enduring love for fine spirits. Today, rum is part of everyday island life, from beach bars to elegant celebrations.

Here are some of the standout names you’ll discover during your Grenadian rum experience:

• Clarke’s Court Rum – Smooth, balanced, and distinctly Grenadian. A modern distillery known for award-winning blends that capture the island’s energy. You can find out more about Clarke’s Court Rum here.
• River Antoine Estate Rum – The oldest working water-powered distillery in the Caribbean, producing traditional overproof rum using methods unchanged since the 1700s.

Together, these rums tell the story of Grenada — bold, authentic, and unforgettable.
