South America > Bonaire

Bonaire, meaning good air, is a Diver’s Paradise and a Diner’s Paradise. This serene sister island of Aruba and Curaçao in the Dutch Caribbean shares Aruba’s arid landscape, making it unsuited for sugarcane cultivation. Given its proximity to both islands, Bonaire’s rum scene shares influences. The local distillery uses a traditional pot still and ages in ex-bourbon barrels. The island’s unique, serene environment, known for its diving and conservation, it’s an ideal location for a small, artisanal rum distillery complementing its natural beauty. While Bonaire’s trade links introduced rum, local production emerged much later in 2009. For rum enthusiasts, you can visit and enjoy Bonaire’s small-batch rums, adding to the island’s allure.
