INVEST IN BOMBARDA RUM TODAY!
Bombarda creates award-winning, pure rum blends by combining up to 5 unique rums in one bottle - giving our expressions a very unique profile and taste that rum lovers truly enjoy.
Blended, quality premium rums are becoming more popular among bars, restaurants, and craft enthusiasts - as global volumes of premium, higher-priced rums increased by 35% between 2015-2020.
Bombarda's flavorful blends and award-winning package design was a hit from the beginning! Total Wine & More launched the brand across the USA on our first day in their stores! We believe that this is a rarity in the industry, which has helped us expand to over 400 locations between North America and Canada. Bombarda Rum produces all of our products in the Netherlands, and we are currently planning to expand our sales channels into Europe in 2023 - 2024. We believe that buyers in will Europe love the brand, as we are currently in talks with European vendors.
OVERVIEW
A true and pure rum that has experienced substantial growth over the past 2 years! Take the journey of a modern day brand that truly embraces the spirit and adventure of rum like no other!
The Bombarda Rum story stems from the 39-year tradition of our founder, Captain James Papagno, sharing rums with his father, a navy veteran and history buff - who lived until almost 102 years old.
Captain James created Bombarda Rum to celebrate an amazing bond between father and son because such a bond should have a spirit to match.
By keeping our rums clean and pure, we are not only preserving the rum’s true and real flavor, but we are honoring the past as a testament to the way rum used to be (and should be) enjoyed. Captain James states, “Rum is the most versatile of spirits, so it's only natural that Bombarda rums are being celebrated across the USA as great sippers and excellent in your favorite cocktail.”
One of our retail buyers gave a comment that resonated with the Bombarda Crew. Bombarda is “a rum lover’s rum!” We took that compliment to heart and our team continues on our quest to meet retail and consumers' demand for transparency and value from a product.
Bombarda Rum’s production process is disrupting the traditional method of rum production by educating consumers and retail buyers on the difference between clean, quality-produced rums and the sugar-packed rum brands dominating the market. In our opinion, it is this education and production process that sets Bombarda Rum apart from the competition. We believe that Bombarda’s Pledge of pure & true rums is paying off!
In our opinion, it's this education and production process that sets Bombarda Rum apart from the competition. We believe that Bombarda’s Pledge of pure & true rums is paying off!
THE PROBLEM & OUR SOLUTION
Most rums are produced using the solera system of blending. However, the true age of a rum isn’t known when employing this production method, which we feel is misleading to consumers.
In addition to our rum blends having no added ingredients or sugars, Bombarda opts out of the chill filtration step during production. This process removes some of the rum's qualities, which is why Captain James and our blending team do not recommend chill filtering for premium rum production. Removing the chill filtration process creates what we believe to be a greater tasting, healthier, and cleaner rum.
Bombarda’s three award-winning rum blends were crafted by our team in collaboration with one of the world's most renowned rum blenders, located in Amsterdam, Netherlands with roots dating back over 300 years.
Our three main expressions are labeled as our Lost Barrel Blends, and named after types of cannons that have existed over the ages. Captain James and the blending crew designed these three expressions using a variety of premium rum origins and ages. Each of the Lost Barrel Blends are tropically aged and double matured in select premium white oak and ex-bourbon casks. According to its age and blend expression, Bombarda is sold for $32.99 to $49.99 per 750 ml bottle, which we believe is an excellent price point for a luxury sipping rum.
The Drake Lost Barrel blend - a 3-5 Year blend of five dark rums, The Culverin Lost Barrel blend - a 5-8 Year blend of three dark rums, and the fierce Falconet Lost Barrel blend - an 8-15 Year blend of four dark rums. Each of Bombarda’s Lost Barrel blends have a distinct and versatile profile so that the consumer can enjoy them both as a sipper or in a cocktail. Scroll our website to view each of the Lost Barrel Blends and “Ship of the Line” Formidable 18 Yr. ultra-premium rum.
Fire-Borne & Crafted for Victory! Captain James claims Bombarda not only creates fine rums, but also displays them in a presentation worthy of an Admiral's salute.
At Bombarda Rum, we go beyond providing great-tasting rums, which is why we have had our award-winning bottles specially designed by the talented Pablo Rovalo from Singular Glass in Barcelona, Spain. Our US-patented bottles are not only shaped like cannons, but each of our Lost Barrel Blends are named after historic cannon types or galleons, which we believe contributes to the overall narrative of the brand. Standing out on the shelf or on any bar top, Bombarda’s cannon bottles and wooden garrison carriages truly turn heads!
To attract the real rum connoisseurs, Bombarda issues a small batch and limited edition release - entitled "Ship Of The Line" Reserve- once a year. Our “Ship of The Line” reserve expressions are older single-origin rums that are exclusive to Bombarda, and each bottle is numbered. These older ultra-premium rums are named after the infamous “Ship of the Line” galleons over the age of sail, each paying homage to a historical story of victory. To add character to the Ship of the Line ultra-premium rums, Captain James and the Bombarda crew carefully select only the finest and rarest dark rums from the West Indies and tropically age them in either Bourbon, Whiskey, or Armagnac casks. Extra aging in Bourbon or other casks results in rich complex flavor, amazing aromatics, and extraordinary smoothness.
These small-batch annual releases provide rum connoisseurs access to exclusive rare and exquisite rums that we believe are not found anywhere else. Our flagship Ship of the Line release, an 18-year bourbon-aged, Barbados Dark rum labeled as Formidable 18 - was an exclusive 2022 release of only 867 bottles, which we are anticipating to sell out.
The upcoming "Ship of the Line" Sovereign XO - 22 is a 22-year Guyana Rum matured and double aged in Armagnac and white oak casks, and we are hoping for it to be a big hit in 2023!
Bombarda’s innovative “Pyrate Republic” Revenge Spiced Rum & Plunder Silver is locked & loaded and ready to raid ports in 2023!
To expand the reach of the brand, Bombarda has two new line extensions planned for release in 2023. It's critical that we expand the awareness of the brand with a slightly lower price point of under $29, and lower proof ABV (alcohol by volume), while maintaining our presence as a premium brand. Bombarda Rum’s swashbuckling & adventurous "Pyrate Republic" line features - "Revenge" a Dark Spiced and Aged Jamaican 3 yr Rum, and “Plunder,” a conspicuous blend of three silver rums from three distilleries of Trinidad, Barbados, and Jamaica, each laid to rest in a real black glass cannon bottle.
Additionally, Bombarda believes that the fun and pirate-themed line extension offers an attractive entry point for younger rum lovers. We believe that the younger market will be attracted to a more premium rum with this line, and we hope that they continue to collect and buy our other releases once they have been exposed Pyrate Republic.
We believe that each of our creative Pyrate Republic blends would be a great addition to any waterfront bar’s menu, and a recipe menu that we have planned. The many pirate and age-of-sail stories, coupled with differentiating label possibilities, are endless.
Bombarda Rum is constantly developing and exploring innovative on-premise promotions with a series of fun and engaging cocktail recipe promotions, treasure hunts, short rum cruises, and other brand promotional concepts.
One such promotion is Bombarda’s “Rolling Thunder'' happy hour. The prototype happy hour is currently in place at Conch Republic Restaurant in Key West, Florida, and features Our Rolling Thunder rum punch & Bombarda’s Caribbean Mojito. We encourage guests of the restaurant to board the Jolly Rover II Schoner located on the nearby dock to enjoy discounted Bombarda rum cocktails and a sunset cruise.
From what we have seen thus far, Bombarda Rum is proving to resonate with consumers and high-end craft cocktail bars. At only $32-$49 a bottle, we feel Bombarda Rum is more affordable than most high-quality rum brands. The rums that we purchase are top-shelf and we believe are well worth the price point.
We work on a 30% - 35% profit margin within the three-tier alcohol model throughout the USA. To maintain a high-quality standard during the bottling process, the company exclusively bottles our rums with one of the Netherlands’ oldest and most reputable bottling firms, Herman Jansen.
THE market & our traction
Blended, premium rums are becoming more popular among bars, restaurants, and craft enthusiasts. Global volumes of premium, higher-priced rums have increased by 35% between 2015-2020 (source). These figures are forecasted to grow by 38% between 2020 and 2025, with an expected $21.5 Billion market by end of 2029 (source, source).
As a leading rum company, we strive to make a positive impact in the premium rum market with upscale attractive packaging, as well as a variety of quality rum blends that we believe appeal to a wide audience. The company further believes that as consumers expand their spirit interest, gluten-free and clean Bombarda Rums will continue to grow in popularity and become a leading national rum brand of choice!
We believe Bombarda Rum is positioned to embrace the ever-expanding demand in the premium rum category. In our opinion, Bombarda’s early traction suggests that we are on track to capture our share of both local and international growth in the premium rum market. We feel that the premium rum market is the next spirit category to grow, akin to the recent popularity uptick in tequilas.
Total Wine & More launched our product nationally in 168 stores across the US in 2021 (source). Additionally, we were named as a Total Wine & More Spirit Direct Partner within less than a year of the brand being on the market (source).
Here’s a look at our other milestones:
WHy INVEST
Bombarda Rum is growing in the premium rum spirits category in North America, including Canada. We are currently in 413 locations, including 168 Total Wine & More stores across 28 states, and many independent retailers and bars in Florida.
Canada, our first international expansion target, is responding wonderfully to our product, and our distributor has increased our retail footprint there to over 34 locations in just the past 30 days.
Through our engaging social media campaigns, as well as Bombarda Rum’s immersive and interactive website (http://www.bombardarum.com), we are able to reach more consumers across all 50 states via social media engagement, e-commerce, and home delivery.
Award-winning Bombarda has won 16 medals not only for the delicious taste but also for our cannon glass bottles and garrison wooden carriage packaging. Consumers love Bombarda, and we have hundreds of positive-tasting reviews!
To achieve this ultimate goal, we intend to work on achieving the following objectives:
(1) Create widespread brand awareness for Bombarda Rum in the US and key international markets through initiatives including cocktail influencer co-marketing, advertising campaigns, retail activations, expanded tasting events, social media marketing, and consumer engagements.
(2) Increase annual sales to at least 40,000 6-pack cases by expanding our in-house sales team, supporting our distributor’s efforts in new account activations, and providing post-placement marketing support to existing trade buyers.
(3) Develop Bombarda into a national brand sold in all major markets across the US and further improve the brand’s availability to consumers by increasing the marketing of our national e-commerce website and expanding the platform into key European markets, allowing quick and convenient purchasing and delivery.
(4) Develop and maintain the brand reputation as craft rum of excellent quality and protect its IP assets from potential dilution or infringement.
Summary
The Company believes that super-premium and premium craft rums have enormous growth potential, backed by the high demand and key consumption trends, as well as industry research that we believe indicates that authentic high-end spirit brands are at the forefront of being targeted for acquisition.
Designed with the motto “Victori Spolia”, Bombarda Rum offers consumers delicious, clean, quality crafted rums presented in an upscale package. The high quality of both the rum and its packaging has been reaffirmed by multiple accolades from a variety of organizations. Additionally, we believe that Bombarda’s accessible retail pricing is a crucial factor in its growth potential, as well as potential expansion of its distribution across major consumption markets. With these important components in place (quality of product, price), we believe that our brand is well-positioned for positive future growth, and that this Regulation Crowdfunding raise can help us realize our marketing plans and sales objectives.
Our sights are set on disrupting the rum spirit category through our commitment to authenticity, purity, value, and quality, as well as some great rum story fun. Join us for a modern-day journey into the world of rum, and invest today!
An exquisite portfolio of blended premium rums in a bottle that we believe truly captures the history of the spirit of rum like no other. Rum is one of the oldest spirits in the world, and deserves a modern-day story that honors its history, celebrates its adventures, and is enjoyed in its purest form as we believe it was intended. Bombarda is just that! Our team creates premium crafted rums by blending up to five different types of dark and gold rums with a variety of ages sourced from only the finest Latin American and Caribbean distilleries. A number of strategic distribution channels have been established across the USA, Canada, and ideally soon, select markets in Europe through which the company plans to expand its production capacity and brand reach. Unlike other rums, Bombarda is TRUE AND PURE, and produced without adding sugars or other artificial ingredients. We believe that rum is the most versatile spirit, and that Bombarda Rum is gaining much attention as a great sipper and the rum of choice for the common rum cocktail. A growing number of consumers, bar and restaurant owners, and spirit retailers are discovering the difference and responding to the ever-growing demand for clean and pure spirits. With all its glory and dedication to excellence, we believe that Bombarda Rum is on track to becoming a legendary rum brand for all to enjoy.
James' strong leadership & financial sales background combined with his entrepreneurial spirit has allowed Bombarda Rum to grow exponentially in a short amount of time. Even though James has not spent many years in the spirit business, James applied his creativeness and can-do attitude to bring Bombarda Rum to market and developed a winning production team halfway around the World in the Netherlands.
James is committed to excellence in all that he does and Bombarda Rum is a true testament to this statement. What makes something authentic and successful is how a small idea, product disruption, passion, and innovation come together.
