Kingston Queen Overproof Jamaican Rum — 700ml | 63% ABV

The Soul of the Caribbean in a High-Proof Expression Kingston Queen is a traditional Jamaican white overproof rum that captures the high-energy, "funky" spirit of the island. Distilled from molasses and bottled at a potent 63% ABV (126 Proof), this rum is a staple of Jamaican culture and a fundamental ingredient in classic tropical mixology. Unlike standard 40% spirits, this overproof expression is unaged and bottled immediately after distillation to preserve the intense, raw esters and tropical fruit notes typical of Jamaican pot still production.

Potency and Mixology Versatility This rum is specifically crafted for high-flavor impact. Its high alcohol content allows the deep tropical flavors of banana, pineapple, and spice to cut through heavy mixers and syrups without losing their character. While it is rarely consumed neat, it is the essential "backbone" of an authentic Jamaican Rum Punch, a Mai Tai, or a "Wray & Nephew" style Ginger and Lime.

Detailed Tasting Notes

• Appearance: Crystal clear with heavy, slow-moving legs.

• Aroma: Intense and pungent; dominant notes of overripe banana, fermented pineapple, and a touch of grassy herbaceousness.

• Palate: Full-bodied and explosive. A powerful wave of tropical fruit sweetness is balanced by a fiery warmth and hints of black pepper and molasses.

• Finish: Long, warming, and remarkably clean, with a lingering tropical fruit funk and a dry, spirit-forward exit.
