Blue Chair Bay White Rum

Blue Chair Bay White is the base of Kenny Chesney's rum line — the country star launched the brand in 2013 after years of island living, naming it for a blue chair on a Caribbean beach where, he says, all his best ideas came. It's a Caribbean white rum, aged in oak and charcoal-filtered to clear, blended in Barbados and bottled at 40% ABV in the beach-blue bottle. Expect a clean, lightly sweet nose of sugarcane and a whisper of vanilla, opening into a smooth, soft palate with gentle molasses sweetness and a faint oak roundness from the aging, finishing crisp and clean with almost no burn. Honest note: this is an easy-drinking, mixer-first white rum built for the beach, not a funky pot-still Jamaican or a grassy agricole — rum enthusiasts should look elsewhere on the shelf, and everyone else will find it does the job. It's the rum for a Mojito with a lot of mint, a Daiquiri, a Piña Colada, a rum punch, or a rum and soda with a squeeze of lime — and the base the brand's coconut, vanilla, and cream flavors are built on. Chesney's own serve: over ice, with a splash of pineapple, on a boat. No shoes, no shirt, no problems.
