Renowned for its exceptional craftsmanship and dedication to quality, this extraordinary accomplishment solidifies Ten To One’s position at the forefront of a new vanguard within the global rum industry.
Founded by Trinidadian Marc Farrell in 2019 and embodying the rich cultural heritage of the Caribbean, Ten To One has captivated connoisseurs and critics worldwide with its unique blend of tradition and innovation. “When we launched Ten To One, we wanted to set a new bar for excellence in the rum category,” said Farrell, “so to be recognised for that effort so consistently these past five years provides added inspiration for us to continue raising that bar. We can’t wait for what the next five years will bring.”
With a legacy emboldened in gold, Ten To One’s awards span a spectrum of categories from 20 world-class competitions, including the Asia International Spirits Competition, the World Rum Awards, the San Francisco World Spirits Competition and the London Spirits Competition.
