Originally produced in Jamaica in the 1930s, if not earlier, Tia Maria was first made with just four ingredients: Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee beans, Jamaican rum, vanilla and cane sugar. A figure called Dr. Evans began manufacturing it in greater quantity after WWII and brought the product to prominence. The strength began at 31.5% or higher, dropping to 26.5% and then to 20%, where it remains. This week, Old Spirits Co. sadly said goodbye to this stunning 1930s bottle of Tia Maria, a true one of a kind. We know it's headed to a good home, however!
