Tortuga Rum Company Giveaway!

Tortuga Rum Company is a twenty-five year old family-owned business that is proud of their long tradition of making the finest Caribbean rum cakes and gourmet products.   Their moist, delicious rum cakes are made from a secret family recipe that has been delighting consumers for years.  Although their main bakery remains in Grand Cayman, Tortuga’s popularity has allowed them to expand to the Barbados, Jamaica , and the Bahamas.  To keep up with the demand, Tortuga Rum Company has also expanded to Miami, Fl where they manage the worldwide distribution, mail orders, food services, and online sales.

The Tortuga Rum Company is more than just cake.  They are the “largest duty free liquor business in the Cayman Islands with 18 stores throughout Grand Cayman.”  They offer a wide variety of flavored cakes, coffees, chocolates, and sauces.  When you get a chance, I would encourage you to explore their website.  They have fabulous ideas for gifts for loved ones, or for yourself!  They even have a variety of gift baskets to choose from.

I had my first experience with Tortuga when I went on a cruise to the Caribbean.  I remembered my Dad commenting on how good they were, so of course I had to give them a shot.  Each cake is individually wrapped and then vacuumed sealed.  This seal makes it difficult to open without scissors, but it keeps the cakes so fresh and moist.  I recently bought my Dad a mixed 6 pack of mini cakes for Father’s Day.  He said he enjoyed the different flavors, but the original rum cake remains his favorite.  Tortuga was gracious enough to send me a few samples as well, and my favorite by far is the Orange Taste of Florida.   The Tortuga Taste of Florida also offers Key Lime and Coconut, but I have yet to try them.  They sound delicious and I can’t wait to come up with an excuse to purchase them!  Tortuga also sent me a sample of their Gourmet Rum Flavored Coffee.  Because I am not a coffee drinker, I shared it with a few of my neighbors.  My one neighbor thought it was a creamy and rich coffee and asked if there was more.  I think a bag of Gourmet Rum Coffee would make a great gift.  My other neighbor enjoyed it, but said that he prefers unflavored coffee.

The Tortuga Rum Company offers too many wonderful products to be able to cover them in a single post, but if you would like a chance to sample some of them, you are in luck.  The generous people from The Tortuga Rum Company have offered one lucky reader of Between the Lines a chance to win their very own 33 oz Tortuga Rum Cake in the flavor of their choice!  This would be a yummy gift for the upcoming Holidays or to share with your Holiday guests.  Of course, you could always hide it and eat it yourself (yes, they are that good!).  They also mini cakes that would make delicious stocking stuffers!!!!  You can purchase them right from their website and if you spend over $100, you will receive a free box of truffles.  Just use the code TRUFF10 at checkout! Truffle promotion end Monday, Dec. 6.
