Bluejacket Rum
80 Proof / 40% ABV
Silver Medal - Bartender Spirit Awards 2022

In 1902 the U.S. Navy began issuing the Bluejacket Manual to every sailor. As the Navy’s bible, it encapsulates the professional maritime spirit of the dedicated sailors or “Bluejackets” that bravely man the United States fleet. Here's to the Bluejacket
Since before the 16th century, the delicious spirits of the Caribbean relied on the natural abundance of sugar cane. 1350 Distilling strives to purchase ingredients, machinery, and products “Made in America”. Our Louisiana-grown and refined molasses provides distinctive light rum flavors from start to finish. Our very slight “sweet-back” of candy sugar provides a light copper tone and gives a pleasing and subtle, sweet finish to our Bluejacket Rum.
Blue Jacket Rum is distilled from Louisiana molasses and Colorado sugar beets, earning the decoration of Gluten Free on every label. As with our other spirits, fresh Colorado Rocky Mountain water is key to our rum fermentation and proofing, providing a clean, high-quality spirit. Rum-lovers have already praised the Blue Jacket Rum.
For being so young, it is as uniquely flavorful and more easily drinkable than most any other name-recognized rums on shelves today. 1350 Distilling's attention to detail, use of high-quality ingredients, and small batch distillation makes The Blue Jacket Rum a must-have for any home bartender and rum collector.
Tasting Notes:
*A strong astringent banana leaf aroma
*Hints of caramel that get stronger on the palate
*Pleasant, buttery and sweet mouthfeel
