Fiji Rum
Rum has been a favorite of many sailors transversing across the great oceans for hundreds of years, Whilst you are navigating across the islands of Fiji on your own adventures, it is the perfect opportunity to savor the rich flavours of the handcrafted award-winning Fiji Rum. Formed from hand-cut sugar grown in Fiji’s rich and fertile volcanic soil, purist local waters, filtered through the coconut shells that dot the landscape, and matured in specialty selected ex-bourbon oak barrels in Fiji’s perfect tropical climate. The simple but complex addition will open you up to a new taste profile, deepening your connection to these islands. We have added a few bullet points below detailing how to impress your friends and family and taste like a Pro.
How to impress your friends and family when you first savor the delights of Fiji Rum
- Cleanse your palate with crackers. Don’t have coffee, chocolate, or spicy foods beforehand.
- The visual experience is a huge part, so select a clear glass (Wine Glass)
- Hold the glass up to a light source to examine the rum and then tip it. Older rum will have a darker ring where the liquid meets the glass.
- Watch the rum slide back down the glass when you straighten it. That’s called “legs.” This shows how thick the rum is. (full-bodied rums have thinner “legs.”)
- Next, take a sniff and try to identify some of the rum’s aromas.
- The last step is to take a sip or to be more specific, multiple sips.
Describing Rum tasting to your friends
- First SIP – The first sip you take will be to overcome the shock of the alcohol on your tongue. When you’re ready, take a second sip and pay attention to the rum’s sweetness, bitterness, spiciness, and acidity. Take a short pause
- Second SIP – This time you’re paying attention to whether the rum is smooth, light, or syrupy.
- Third SIP – will be to note the aftertaste, how it tastes, and how long before it fades away.
- Then you’ll be able to describe to your friends exactly how it tastes, the viscosity, and strength.
Dog Beer
Craft Beer is a beer that has been made by craft breweries, they normally produce smaller amounts, with a larger emphasis on enthusiasm and passion for the process with newer flavours and textures being released.

Mocktails are specially crafted mixed drinks similar to cocktails but without liquor and other alcohol-based components. They usually include many of the same ingredients as cocktails on the menu — like freshly squeezed juice, infused syrups, shrubs, flavored sugars or salts, and more. (Allrecipes, 2023)
