Offering a range of four enticing selections, Travellers Ruta Maya Rum is a unique, sustainable, and explorer-approved Belizean rum. Here are four delightful options to choose from.

Coffee

Love a good brew as much as you love a great rum? Ruta Maya Coffee rum promises deep, intense flavors – a result of roasting Pacamara arabica beans Imported from Guatemala. These beans grow at altitudes of at least 1000 feet. Ruta Maya Coffee is a smooth rum with distinct coffee notes.

Cocolime

If coffee doesn’t do it for you, try Ruta Maya Cocolime. It pairs flavors of lightly toasted and creamy coconut with fresh lime zest. The lime used in this recipe comes from a local citrus factory and is paired with rich sugar cane syrup manufactured on-site. 

Ouro

What makes Ruta Maya Ouro unique? This gold rum has light hints of butterscotch and charcoal with a citrus fruit finish. Simple yet elegant, Ouro is a natural blend of rums aged 3-5 years in ex-Kentucky bourbon casks.

Blanco

The fourth member of this quintet boasts a subtle sweetness and light citrus flavor. Ruta Maya Blanco’s distinctive taste comes from fermented molasses sourced from Fairtrade Certified Belize Sugar Industries. Expect the ultimate smoothness.
