Brinley Gold Description
Brinley Gold Shipwreck Rum is hand crafted on the beautiful Caribbean island of St. Kitts. Our mission is simple – to make the best tasting flavored rum in the world. We blend only the finest ingredients into our award-winning rums – White Reserve, Shipwreck Spiced, Vanilla, Coffee, Mango and Coconut.
The family business began on the island of St. Kitts in 1986 by Bob Brinley, who now serves as chairman of Brinley Gold Rum.
In 2002, Zach Brinley, Bob’s son, traded his job on Wall Street to become president of the new rum company. His mission was to create the smoothest flavored rum in the world. Brinley Gold Rum blended and marketed its first batch of vanilla rum and started selling on the island that very same year.
From the very beginning, the entire Brinley family knew they had produced something very special and dove into the United States marketplace personally, sometimes selling store-to-store, bar-to-bar and offering free tastes at every possible opportunity. In 2005, Opici, a well-known and established New York / New Jersey distributor was the first to pick up the brand and helping the company grow tremendously over the next six years.
TASTING NOTES: Rich cream followed by flavors of fresh and toasted coconut. It finishes with sweet rum and notes of nutmeg and cardamom.
Wine Enthusiast: 93 Points
Wine Enthusiast 93 points - Milky white and scented with coconut, this liqueur is sweet and creamy on the palate, with plenty of coconut flavor. It’s not as thick as some other cream liqueurs, which makes it relatively easy drinking. Ideal for mixing into pina colada-style drinks in place of coconut cream.
