Caribbean Journal first launched the Caribbean Rum Awards in 2018. Now in its seventh year, the CRA has become the region's most exclusive celebration of rum, focused in the heart of St Barth's capital, Gustavia.
Each year, a team of judges from the Caribbean and around the world descend upon St Barth to judge a coveted selection of the Caribbean's best rums, including "Uber-Premium" categories of rum and rhum agricole that gather the most expensive rums on the market for an unparalleled competition.
