Handcrafted Real McCoy Rum is now available in Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Florida and New Jersey.
In a further move to support its presence in the rum category, The Real McCoy Rum opens distribution in New Jersey, the fifth market to be added since the brand’s launch in January. Real McCoy Spirits, Corp. began its introduction with a 5-year-aged rum, followed by 3- and 12-year aged rums, both of which hit shelves last month. Beyond New Jersey, all three expressions are available in Connecticut, Massachusetts, Florida and Rhode Island. With the addition of New Jersey this month, and Florida in October, Real McCoy Spirits Corp. is making measurable strides to establish a national presence with its rums. As the brand continues to build momentum in the states it is sold, further distribution expansion is close on the horizon.
Attributed to the legacy of Bill McCoy, the pioneer rum-runner of the Prohibition era, The Real McCoy Rum is produced by Foursquare Distillery in Barbados, overseen by Master Distiller and recent Rum Hall of Fame inductee Richard Seale. All three marks are made under an uncompromised set of standards, using the highest quality molasses and proprietary yeast exclusive to the distillery.
The Real McCoy 3-year and 12-year aged rums (40% abv/80 proof) are available now in 750ml for an SRP of $19.99 and $44.99, respectively. The 5-year-aged expression launched in January in a 750ml format with an SRP of $28.99.
The Real McCoy is a rum born from the story of Bill McCoy, the pioneer Rum Runner of the Prohibition era. A blend of column and pot still rum, The Real McCoy is a multi-award-winning super premium rum, made using only top quality black strap molasses and proprietary yeast, and is aged in toasted American oak bourbon barrels. The Real McCoy is produced by Foursquare Distillery in the province of St. Phillip, Barbados, West Indies and is available in 3, 5 and 12 Year aged expressions in CT, MA, NJ, FL and RI.
