This exceptional rum is the product of a special collaboration between Distilia and Catawiki, combining years of passion and expertise to create a true masterpiece. Bottled in 2023, this 28-year-old Jamaican rum from the famed New Yarmouth distillery embodies the rich traditions and bold flavors of the island.

Named after the Lignum Vitae - meaning "wood of life" in Latin - this rum captures the spirit of Jamaica. The Lignum Vitae is known for its striking blue flowers and orange-yellow fruit, as well as its historic use in shipbuilding. Once used in propeller shaft bearings, this plant has been vital to the shipyards of Jamaica, making it a symbol of both beauty and strength. So significant is the Lignum Vitae to the Jamaican people that its flower is a national emblem.

Like the Lignum Vitae, this rum offers a unique connection to the island, its history, and its vibrant culture. With only 239 bottles in this limited-edition release, each features a stunning design and is available exclusively through Catawiki’s dedicated auctions.
