Rum Journal: The Caribbean’s Best New Rum Is From Grenada

Discover the Exquisite Taste of Grenada's Finest Rum in an Iconic Bottle

A Legacy of Excellence

"For almost three centuries, the art of rum-making has flourished in a 500-acre estate nestled amidst waving cane fields along the southern coast of Grenada," reminisces the rum experts at Westerhall Estate.

Embrace Tradition, Embrace Quality

Strolling through the estate, one encounters the rich remnants of centuries-old sugarcane tradition, harmoniously coexisting with the gentle flow of a natural spring.

The Essence of Westerhall

While the estate's ancient still is now a cherished artifact, the Westerhall brand persists in its mission to bottle the essence of Grenada's spirit, with each drop aging to perfection and infused with the island's pristine waters.

"Grenada’s illustrious rum industry has garnered recent attention, particularly with Renegade Rum's pioneering project to distill sugarcane-juice rum on the island. Notably, Westerhall’s cane fields serve as a key source for Renegade’s terroir-focused expressions, including the acclaimed 'Westerhall' label."

Celebrate with XXO Rum

In commemoration of Grenada’s 50th independence anniversary, Westerhall proudly unveils its latest masterpiece: XXO Rum. Crafted from a blend of 23-year-old rums, meticulously aged in ex-sherry and ex-bourbon casks, XXO Rum epitomizes luxury in every sip.

A Symphony of Flavors

The aroma tantalizes the senses with notes of orange peel, bourbon, and bittersweet chocolate, accented by a whisper of black pepper. On the palate, indulge in the decadent harmony of dark chocolate, espresso, creme brulee, and a delicate hint of black cherry. XXO Rum promises a velvety mouthfeel and impeccable balance, a testament to the artistry of Westerhall's craftsmen.

"While the rum industry evolves towards premiumization, Westerhall's commitment to excellence remains unwavering. XXO Rum stands as a beacon of unparalleled quality, hailed as the Caribbean's finest, a title well-deserved in this era of rare and exceptional spirits."

Tabasco Unveils New Buffalo Style Sauce: A Game-Changer for Flavor Aficionados

Introducing a Tangy, Garlicky, and Savory Delight in an Innovative Squeezable Bottle

Innovation at the Heart

"Innovation is a priority for us at McIlhenny Company," Lee Susen, the chief sales and marketing officer at McIlhenny Company, which owns the Tabasco brand, shared with Food & Wine. "We keep consumer needs at the heart of our innovation process to deliver products that meet them where they are — and where we forecast they will be — with the foods and flavors they’re consuming."

Goodbye Glass, Hello Squeeze

The brand is swapping out its traditional glass for an easy-to-squeeze bottle so fans can drizzle the new sauce on classics like wings and pizza or whatever else they want to throw it on.

Crafted for Culinary Adventures

The new sauce, made with a blend of cayenne, oak-aged pepper mash, and red jalapeño, comes with a Scoville heat rating of SHU 1,200 – 1,800.

Perfect Pairings

As for what Susen thinks the sauce is perfect for, he believes it's an ideal pairing for wings, naturally, but also anything with cheese as the "vinegar both cuts through and compliments" almost any cheese variety.

"The new format is a direct response to consumer demand for easier and more controlled application of our thicker style sauces, similar to Tabasco Sriracha Sauce and Tabasco Sweet & Spicy Sauce."

The new sauce officially launches today and will be available at major retailers, including Amazon and Walmart. It's available in one size, 8.6 oz., and costs $3.56 (though this can vary by retailer).
