At United Drinks, we are all about bringing distinctive international drinks brands to the UK and giving them the platform they deserve. We are excited to announce our new partnership with Navy Island Rum Company, Belizean Blue and Caña Mística, for which United Drinks is the UK importer and distributor.
This new partnership brings together three very different rum stories — Jamaica, Belize and a modern Caribbean-inspired expression — giving UK rum lovers the opportunity to discover something new.
Three Brands. Three Stories. One UK Home.
Navy Island Rum Company — The Spirit of Jamaica
Navy Island celebrates the bold and distinctive character of Jamaican rum, with a focus on the traditional depth and intensity associated with Jamaican pot-still spirits.
The range includes Navy Island XO Reserve, Navy Island Navy Strength and Navy Island PX Finish, offering different ways to experience the character of Jamaican rum.
From rich and complex sipping rums to higher-strength expressions and Pedro Ximénez cask finishes, Navy Island is a range built for people who enjoy rum with personality.
Belizean Blue — The Spirit of Belize
From Jamaica, we head to Belize with Belizean Blue, produced by family-owned Travellers Liquors Ltd.
Made in Belize from locally grown sugarcane, Belizean Blue reflects the country's rum-making heritage and natural character. The brand is also Fairtrade Certified, adding an important connection between the spirit, the land and the people behind its production.
The range includes the Belizean Blue Signature Blend and Rare Blend, with the latter bringing together Belizean rums aged for an average of around nine years, including rums aged for up to 17 years.
Caña Mística Reserva — A Modern Expression
Completing the collection is Caña Mística Reserva, a contemporary rum-based spirit drink created by Jacco Kroon.
Caña Mística brings a different perspective to the category, combining Caribbean inspiration with a modern approach. It sits naturally alongside the two rum brands while offering something distinctive for drinkers looking to explore beyond traditional expressions.
Building the Brands Across the UK
As UK importer and distributor, United Drinks will manage the brands across our existing sales infrastructure, giving them multiple routes into the UK market.
The products will be available through Amazon Prime, Tesco Marketplace, DrinksBox, the United Drinks online store and our wider trade network.
We will also introduce the brands through our UK events programme, giving customers the opportunity to discover the bottles, learn about their origins and experience the brands beyond the online marketplace.
For us, distribution is about more than simply moving products from one country to another. It is about building a proper UK presence, creating visibility and connecting great international brands with the right customers.
From Jamaica and Belize to the UK
Navy Island, Belizean Blue and Caña Mística each bring something different to the table.
Bold Jamaican character. Rich Belizean heritage. A modern Caribbean-inspired expression.
Together, they form an exciting new collection for United Drinks and another opportunity to bring exceptional international spirits to the UK.
