Sunset Very Strong Rum: Caribbean Thunder
This Caribbean powerhouse from Saint Vincent and the Grenadines packs 84.5% ABV. The sharp flavor carries slight sweetness with raw sugarcane notes typical of island rums. Locals dilute it with tropical mixers or use it as the punch base at celebrations. A 750ml bottle costs just $20-35. The affordable price makes it popular throughout the Caribbean. The rum requires careful handling since its high proof makes it notably flammable.
