At John Crow’s Tavern, we take pride in not just the food we serve, but also the drinks that complement it. Jamaica boasts a rich rum-making tradition, and we’re committed to offering our guests a selection of premium Jamaican spirits that tantalize the taste buds. But with so many options available, how do we ensure we’re serving only the finest? Here’s a peek behind the curtain:
Discerning Distilleries:
Our journey to premium spirits starts with meticulous research. We visit local distilleries, large and small, to understand their production methods, aging processes, and commitment to quality. We look for distilleries that utilize traditional techniques, source high-quality sugarcane molasses, and prioritize slow aging in oak barrels for complex flavors.
The Art of the Tasting:
Once a distillery piques our interest, a tasting is a must. Our experienced staff gathers to sample the rums, noting their aroma, flavor profile, and finish. We seek rums with distinct characteristics, smooth textures, and a balanced character that complements our food. Only the spirits that truly impress make it onto our shelves.
Beyond Rum: A World of Premium Choices
While rum reigns supreme, we also offer a curated selection of other premium spirits. We source high-quality vodkas, gins, and tequilas, ensuring our guests have a variety of options to explore. We prioritize brands known for their dedication to quality ingredients and meticulous distillation processes.
Local Legends and Global Gems:
Our selection isn’t limited by geography. We showcase exceptional Jamaican rums like the world-renowned Appleton Estate and the revered Wray & Nephew. However, we also feature select international brands that elevate the cocktail experience. This allows us to cater to diverse palates while still highlighting the best of Jamaica.
Staying Ahead of the Curve:
The world of spirits is constantly evolving, and we strive to stay ahead of the curve. We attend industry events, collaborate with local distributors, and keep a pulse on emerging trends. This ensures our selection remains exciting and offers something new for even the most discerning connoisseurs
