LuxuryCruiseBible.com is happy to announce the first of many giveaways. It's our way of saying 'thanks' for supporting this blog and our associated website.Tortuga Rum Company of the Cayman Islands is our first prize sponsor and they will gift one lucky winner with a scrumptious 33 oz. Tortuga Rum Cake.
If you've cruised the Caribbean before, you're no doubt already acquainted with these awesome treats. It's the quintessential gift to stock up on and share with your friends back home.
The cakes are available in several delectable flavors, including...
- original with walnuts
- chocolate
- coconut
- Blue Mountain coffee
- banana
- Key lime
- pineapple
- cinnamon raisin
The genesis of the company is actually quite interesting. The husband-and-wife team of Robert and Carlene Hamaty dreamed up the concept for Tortuga Rum Company in 1984 when they were still both working for Cayman Airways. They noticed that travelers were leaving the Caribbean with Bermuda Rum, which was actually made in the Caribbean and then shipped to Bermuda for bottling. They decided that the Cayman Islands needed its own brand of rum and their business was born.
Today, the Tortuga label is known and respected throughout the Caribbean.
