Oxbow Rum Distillery Releases New Dark Rum

BATON ROUGE, LA — Oxbow Rum Distillery, an award winning craft spirits producer, known for its innovative approach to traditional rum-making, is proud to announce the release of False River Premium Dark Rum. This latest addition to the False River family captures the spirit of Louisiana's rich cultural heritage while offering a bold take on classic Caribbean dark rum.

A Taste of Louisiana's LegacyFalse River Premium Dark Rum is a tribute to the dynamic landscape and resilient people of Pointe Coupée Parish, where the Mississippi River's historic shifts gave birth to the False River—a long, curved lake that stands as a testament to nature's power. This rum embodies that same spirit of transformation, bringing together the finest Grade-A molasses from Louisiana with deep, complex flavors developed through aging in bourbon barrels. The final touch—a blend of dark caramel—adds a luxurious finish that sets False River apart.
