RUM OF FIJI

There seems to be something about island paradises and excellent rum. It almost seems like the more sun drenched and idyllic a place is, the more likely the locals are to also be expert crafters of said elixir.

While reading that, most people would think first of the Caribbean and the fine produce from places like Cuba or Barbados, and for good reason. But Central America is not the be-all and end-all of the world of rum, and tropical Pacific Ocean paradises are also staking their claim for rum distilling excellence.

From Lautoka, the Rum Co. of Fiji have actually been making their award-winning spirits since 1980. Parallels with the Caribbean’s best are multiple, and begin from the ground up. Sugar cane is hand cut, and grown in nutrient-rich volcanic soil before making its way to distillation in a combination of column and pot stills and maturation in ex-bourbon casks.

There are broadly two ranges of rums made here, named Bati and Ratu after Fijian warriors and chiefs respectively. The Bati range are the younger, clocking in at two years’ maturity and including classic and modern takes alike, including a white rum and a coconut liqueur. Ratu rums, chieftains of the mix, can vary from five to eight years’ minimum maturation.
