Mauritius
Mauritius: Island terroir shaping Mauritius rum and rum from Mauritius excellence
Volcanic, wind-brushed and sugarcane-rich, Mauritius crafts characterful island rums. Basaltic soils, warm days and cool trade winds produce expressive cane—reflected in both cane‑juice rhum and molasses-based styles. From Chamarel and Saint Aubin to Grays and Litchquor, producers marry column precision with pot-still punch and inventive cask finishes.
On RumX—the world’s largest rum platform—you’ll find 463 expressions of Mauritius, rated across 4,847 community reviews with a median 7.5/10. New Grove Emotion and S.B.S Mauritius 2009 charm enthusiasts, while Lazy Dodo, Gold of Mauritius and Blue Mauritius appeal to sweeter palates. Curious about the best from Mauritius distilleries? You’re in the right place. Our community highlights value picks and premium rum treasures alike.
