As the amber leaves of fall begin to descend, whiskey often becomes the drink of choice. However, The Ritz Carlton Grand Cayman is rewriting the autumnal narrative with its exclusive "The Rum Ritual." Ditching the traditional whiskey pairing, this luxurious hotel invites guests to savor an exquisite range of Caribbean rums. But that's not all! These rums are thoughtfully paired with a handpicked selection of chocolates and cigars, elevating the tasting experience to a whole new level.
Shanken News Daily highlights a growing trend among rum enthusiasts – a thirst for rums with a rich backstory, impeccable craft credentials, and a transparent commitment to the environment. The Rum Ritual at The Ritz Carlton Grand Cayman perfectly encapsulates this trend. Monica Dubar, the hotel's beverage manager, shares, "The ritual was born from the heart of our tropical region. Our aim? To offer guests a taste of the rare and exceptional in the world of rum." Hosted daily at 6 p.m. in the Silver Palm, the Lobby Bar of the hotel, this ritual unveils a 10-foot-tall armoire, revealing rums like the Appleton Joy 25-year-old from Jamaica and the luxurious Damoiseau 1953 31-year rhum from Guadeloupe. And for those seeking guidance, the experts on hand will recommend the perfect cacao or cigar pairing to complement your chosen rum.
