Why do travelers flock to Belize? Weather, wildlife, world-class beaches, dive sites, plus unbelievable scuba experiences, and cuisine guaranteed to make you re-think your preference for French cooking in case you didn’t know it, Belize is home to no fewer than 900 Maya ruins. They’re everywhere you look, from towering compounds to underground caves. The tallest of them all (El Castillo) was recently conquered by England’s Prince Harry.

Ask bartenders working at resorts, eateries, and pubs what tourists are sampling and they’ll agree that anything mixed with the high-quality rum this nation produces places distillers among those quickly gaining international reputations for taste, quality, and variety.
