Marienburg Rum

A testament to Suriname’s rich rum-making heritage, offering enthusiasts a spirit that is both potent and flavorful. Originating from the historic Mariënburg plantation, founded in the 18th century and expanded in 1882, this rum embodies centuries of craftsmanship. After the plantation’s sugar operations closed in the 1980s, Suriname Alcoholic Beverages (SAB) preserved this iconic rum’s legacy.

Distinctive Character & Flavor Profile Renowned for its exceptional strength, Marienburg Rum can reach up to 90% ABV, though for export, it is typically bottled at 81%. Despite its high proof, the rum remains remarkably smooth and expressive. The palate bursts with bold tropical fruit, rich molasses, and a hint of spice, leading to a clean, intense finish that lingers with warmth and depth.

This robust rum enhances bold cocktails, bringing a powerful kick to both classic and modern mixes. Its strength also makes it suitable for sipping neat, best accompanied by a glass of water to fully appreciate its complexity. In Surinamese cuisine, Marienburg Rum enhances both sweet and savory dishes, enriching traditional recipes with its deep, distinctive character. Cultural Legacy More than just a spirit, Marienburg Rum represents the resilience and innovation of Suriname’s rum industry. A fusion of history and craftsmanship, this rum is a must-have for collectors and connoisseurs seeking an authentic, high-proof experience.
