Bombarda at Sea

A rum built on ocean voyages belongs on the water. Most people meet us somewhere between ports.

Where to find us afloat

Carnival Cruise Line

The Falconet Midnight Battle Edition, at the bar and in duty free. Ask for the black cannon bottle.

Royal Caribbean

Falconet Midnight at the bar and in duty free. Duty free is often the best price you will find on it.

Disney Cruise Line

The signature triple-shot flight — Culverin, Falconet and Sovereign XO 22, poured side by side.

The Falconet Midnight Battle Edition dark Caribbean rum, the black cannon bottle

You had the black cannon bottle

If you tried Bombarda at sea on any ship other than Disney, it was The Falconet Midnight Battle Edition — a dark Caribbean blend aged 8 to 15 years, in the black bottle with the cannon on the label.

A cocktail built on Falconet was named Platinum First Place Cocktail Champion by the Beverage Testing Institute in 2021. It is blended with no added sugar, no caramel colorant and no chill filtration.

Make it again at home

A bottle bought in duty free deserves better than a rum and coke on the sofa. These four are built on Falconet, and three of them take under two minutes.

Falconet is one bottle out of eight, and the rest of the range does different jobs. Ashore, you can have all of it.

Build the flight at home

The Disney flight is an age progression — Culverin at 5 to 8 years, Falconet at 8 to 15, Sovereign XO at 22. Same house, same rules, three different lengths of time in wood. Poured side by side it is an education in about ten minutes, and it is the fastest way to understand what ageing actually does to rum.

Why a rum named after cannons belongs at sea

Spanish treasure recovered from a Caribbean shipwreck

Bombarda was founded in South Florida to honor a United States Navy veteran — Captain James's father, who served, came home, and lived to be almost 102. Every expression we make carries the name of a gun that decided the age of sail: the Drake, the Falconet, the Culverin, the Sovereign.

Every bottle is blended with no added sugar, no caramel colorant and no chill filtration — which is why our rums hold their shape in a cocktail instead of sweetening it for you.
