History
The Worthy Park Estate in Jamaica was founded in 1670, and produced its first rum in 1741.[3] However, it wasn't until it built a new distillery in 2005 that it released its first rum after a decades-long hiatus in 2007.[4] Named Rum-Bar, it was a 65% white overproof rum designed to compete with other white Jamaican rums like Wray & Nephew.[4] Since its introduction, the Rum-Bar brand has been expanded to include Rum-Bar Rum Cream, a cream liqueur made with a blend of 100% real cream and Rum-Bar Rum; Rum-Bar Gold, a 4 year old premium gold rum; Rum-Bar Silver, a lighter 40% ABV all-purpose white rum; and a line of Rum-Bar vodkas, which includes classic and green apple varieties.[4][3] The original Rum-Bar was also renamed to Rum-Bar Overproof, and reduced from 65% ABV to 63% ABV.[5][3]
