Rum has been distilled and blended by the Callwood family for more than 200 years in Tortola. Callwood produces sugar cane rum, aged in oak barrels. It claims to be the Caribbean’s oldest continuously operating pot distillery. If you visit between March and August, you may have a chance to see the full distilling operation. However, the distillery is open year-round to tour the grounds and purchase some of Callwood’s rums from the mild “Panty Remover” to the 10-year aged rum.
