Belizean Blue is distilled, aged & blended by Travellers Liquors Ltd, a family-owned company based in Belize.
15. The Local Distillery The distillery is located in the capital city of Belmopan, with access to local molasses from the two sugar factories in Belize. The distilled spirits are then shipped an hour from Belmopan to Belize City where they blend, age, bottle and distribute the products. The company was founded in 1953 by Jaime Omario Perdomo, a self-educated entrepreneur and creator of award-winning blends. He first concocted blends using rums from other distilleries, over time branding the blends and eventually acquiring the present distillery. Since Don Omario’s passing, the second generation has managed the distillery as well as the bottling, blending and distribution facility. Incorporated in 1985, it remains a family-owned firm to this day.
17. Fair and Sustainable Travellers Liquors Ltd. is Fairtrade Certified, as is the entire sugar industry in Belize. In addition to their bottle reuse and recycling initiatives, they have also built a wastewater treatment plant at the distillery and are exploring options for transporting vinasse to serve as fertilizer. Our brand "Belizean Blue" is Fairtrade Certified. The Belizean Blue Signature Blend, Belizean Blue Rare Blend, and even the Belizean Blue Silver all carry the official Fairtrade mark on the label, ensuring our commitment to ethical and sustainable practices.
