Since
1953, TRAVELLERS LIQUORS LTD. has been providing Belizeans
and visitors alike with a broad and unique assortment
of distilled and fermented products. Founder and Patriarch
of the family, Master Blender Omario Perdomo, gave the
company its name because of its original success serving
travellers along the main route into and out of Belize
City.
In
1992, the company completely upgraded the distillation
facility, stepping away from other distilleries which
use acids to speed up the fermentation process. TRAVELLERS
employs high-test molasses with natural fermentation,
coupled with a double-distillation method for smoother
taste. Apart from the traditional distilled products like
rum and vodka, TRAVELLERS also produces liqueurs and wines
from Belizean fruits ... the only Belizean refinery that
does this.
History
was made in 1995, when TRAVELLERS passed standards set
for vodka by the U. S. Bureau of Tobacco, Alcohol &
Firearms, clearing the way for its first shipment of 1,600
gallons of Cane Juice Vodka to the U. S. for sale in 39
states. One year later, TRAVELLERS captured two awards
at the ANNUAL RUM TASTING contest, the only company of
the 131 who entered to win in two major categories. They
are the producers of Belize's oldest and only aged rums
on the market today.
Using
secret family formulas combined with multiple distillations,
special aging techniques and unique Belizean juices and
flavorings, the Perdomo family is extremely proud to present
to you an award winning collection of products to complement
even the most discerning taste.
