Bordered by Mexico, Guatemala, and the Caribbean Sea, Belize may be more well known for its lush jungles, Mayan ruins, and coral reefs than its rum, but take heed—the small-but-mighty country produces some of the finest rums in the Caribbean. Holmes Cay notably offers the only independently bottled single cask rum from Travellers Liquors Distillery that is 100% tropically aged and bottled in Belize at its original barrel entry proof.
