Highball Express does not belong to a single distillery; it is an independent premium rum brand created by the Irish company Kirker Greer Spirits. The brand operates as a Master Blender, sourcing exceptional rums from multiple renowned distilleries across the Caribbean and Central America to create unique small batches.The name is a direct tribute to the flying boats of the 1920s Prohibition era, which transported thirsty Americans from the "dry states" to the "wet islands" of the Caribbean to drink legally. The Rum Range and OriginsEach expression in the lineup is built around a key aged rum, enhanced with distillates from other nations:Highball Express 12 Year Old (Reserve Blend): The heart of this blend is a 12-year-old Jamaican rum, perfectly paired with tropical rums from Guyana, Nicaragua, and the Dominican Republic. It stands out with notes of vanilla, toffee, and tropical fruits.Highball Express 18 Year Old (Rare Blend): Centered on an 18-year-old rum from Trinidad, combined with aged rums from Guyana, the Dominican Republic, Barbados, and Jamaica. It features a woodier, slightly smoky profile with hints of cacao. Because the brand does not add excessive sugar, these rums tend to be drier, well-balanced, and focused on the authentic character of oak cask aging, making them ideal to sip neat or mix into classic cocktails like a Rum Old Fashioned.
