McCoy also made a name for himself by never adulterating his rum with turpentine, wood alcohol, or prune juice. Instead of "booze," "hooch," or "red gut," McCoy offered genuine, high-quality rum: The Real McCoy.
In his honor, the rum is produced according to the Prohibition tradition at the Foursquare Distillery in Barbados: without the addition of sweeteners, flavors, or chemical stabilizers, but with the finest blackstrap molasses and pure spring water.
Distilled in small batches in a rare combination of copper pot and column stills, it is matured in heavily charred bourbon barrels or sherry casks. The result? A rum that was the first of its kind to be crowned "Supreme Champion" at the 2018 ISC.
The Real McCoy 12 yo matures extensively at a high angel's share in the tropical climate of Barbados. This smooth "sipping rum" combines complex wood and spice notes with dark chocolate, buttery caramel, and orange peel.
