Description

A miniature bottle of Lemon Hart Golden Jamaica Rum. We estimate this was bottled in the 1970s.

Please note, there is no size stated on the label, but this appears to be a 5cl bottle.

The Hart's have been involved in the rum trade since 1768, when German merchant Abraham Hart settled in Penzance, Cornwall. Importing and trading rum from the Caribbean, Hart earned a strong reputation as a spirits merchant. Two generations later, Abraham's grandson Lehman 'Lemon' Hart took charge of the business and began to focus on blending, creating a signature blend made of rums distilled on the banks of the Demerara river in Guyana. In the late 18th century, Lemon Hart & Son became the official supplier of the Royal Navy's rum ration. In 1804, fearing an attack by the French in the Napoleonic Wars, Lemon Hart moved all of his rum stocks from Penzance to his newly established base in West India Dock, London. Lemon Hart died in 1845, and his only son, David, took over the business. Lemon Hart & Son joined rum importers Portal Dingwall & Norris in 1892, and this company merged with Alfred Lamb Ltd. during World War II to form United Rum Merchants.
