Review: Brinley Gold Shipwreck Mango Rum
Brinley Gold Shipwreck Mango rum is one of five rums made in St. Kitts. At 69 square miles St. Kitts is the smallest Country in the Western Hemisphere. Brinley rum was created when after 20 years Bob Brinley closed his medical supply business and the Brinley’s were looking for a way to stay on the island of St. Kitts.
