Global Partnership
SETTING SAIL WITH
CARNIVAL
All aboard! Cape Fear Distillery is proud to announce that our Cape Fear Rum has been selected to sail on Carnival Cruise Line, onboarding 22 Carnival ships on the "World's Most Popular Cruise Line."
According to Zachary Sulkes, Carnival Cruise Line's Director of Beverage Operations, Carnival discovered Cape Fear Rum at the PROOFs Awards in Las Vegas. "Carnival chose only three new rum brands to onboard this year and we chose Cape Fear Rum because of its smooth, tropical taste and nautical branding, which is perfect for our ships' bars."
Owner Alex Munroe recalls the surprise: "I received an email requesting a sample case of Cape Fear Rum to be shipped to Miami for a boat. I assumed it was for some bigwig who wanted it on his yacht. A couple weeks later I found out that he was the Vice President of Beverage Operations for Carnival Cruise Line. You'd have thought we'd just won the lottery!"
