Double-distilled blends

Aged in Extra-old Casks

Old St. Croix XO Reserve (ABV 40% to 45.5%) is a series of extra-old double-distilled blends curated by our Master Distiller to ensure a perfectly balanced and consistent taste. The style is balmy and aromatic, with strong roots in our West Indies heritage. Aging in oak casks that once held fortified wine, imparts a memorable, dark, and sweet taste.

The Sugar Mills of St. Croix

The sugar mills were symbols of the industry that dominated St. Croix in the 18th and 19th centuries. Today, many stand as ruins, but when production was at its peak, there were more than 200 sugar mills on the island. 

The byproduct of sugar production, molasses, proved to be ideal for crafting first-class spirits. The Danish adventurer and master blender Albert Heinrich Riise based his blends on molasses from St. Croix and honored the island by using the trademark Old St. Croix Brand.
