Saint Benevolence Caribbean Rum. This eye-catching bottle is a fairly new product on the market, a 5 year old rum blend from various Caribbean islands. Beyond the unique packaging and tasty quality rum inside, what’s really exciting about this bottle is that *100%* of its profits from sales go towards funding charity work in Haiti.
Saint Benevolence was founded by a father and son duo whose family has been doing charitable work in Haiti for over 15 years through Living Hope Haiti, providing everything from medical services to building education facilities and infrastructure in the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere. The rum company provides a way to directly drive additional funding to the cause, and in the near future, will also highlight fully Haiti-made rums (known as clairin) in addition to this balanced and cocktail-perfect rum blend.
Saint Benevolence is currently available in California and Florida, so keep your eyes out at bars and shops! Drink good rum and support goodwill…can’t beat that combo. PS if you’re in CA, Bitters + Bottles carries this for sale!
