OUR FOUNDER

As a first-ballot Hall of Famer, 10-time All-Star and three-time World Series Champion, the remarkable success on the field of David "Big Papi" Ortiz is matched only by his profound commitment to giving back to the community. That was the inspiration for creating Ozama Rum, to pay homage to his homeland while providing a platform to give back to his community.

100% AUTHENTIC

The pure joy of our country is embodied in every hand-crafted sip. From the sugarcane fields, to production line, to bottling facility, Ozama is 100% Dominican-made and we are proud of our authentic roots.

A LEGENDARY NAME

Inspired by the countless days David spent at the river fishing, swimming and crabbing for jaiba when he was a little boy, Ozama Rum's packaging is bold, the taste is smooth, and its brand ethos is unapologetically joyful. 

"I wanted to build something that celebrates the energy and soul of my people and shows the world what we’re made of. It's always been important for me to do things the right way, which is why this labor of love has been one of the most rewarding projects of my career. I can't wait for people to try it!"
