Holmes Cay is an American premium rum company founded in 2019 by Eric Kaye and Maura Gedid. Based in New York, the brand operates as an independent bottler rather than a distillery, sourcing exceptional rums from renowned producers around the world and releasing them under the Holmes Cay label.
The company was established with a mission to introduce American consumers to authentic, additive-free rums that are often difficult to find outside their countries of origin. Holmes Cay specializes in limited-edition Single Cask and Single Origin releases, emphasizing transparency, genuine age statements, cask-strength bottlings, and traditional production methods.
Its portfolio features rums from destinations such as Jamaica, Guyana, Barbados, Fiji, Belize, Réunion Island, Mauritius, Trinidad, and Venezuela, showcasing the remarkable diversity of global rum production. By working closely with distilleries and prioritizing unadulterated spirits without added sugar, coloring, or flavorings, Holmes Cay has earned a strong reputation among rum enthusiasts and critics.
The brand is widely recognized for helping elevate the perception of premium rum in the United States and for bringing rare and distinctive expressions to a broader audience.
