Richland Rum If you’re looking for a boutique, luxurious, high-quality American rum, this is for you. One of the few American rums that can hold up (and, partisans say, beat) its Caribbean colleagues, Richland is a true single-estate rum distillery, from cane to glass. This is a serious aged rum, from its “virgin” lightly aged juice to its outstanding cask strength expression and newer entries like the Chateau Elan port-cask finished rum.
