The Blue Chair Bay premium-blended rum line, founded in 2013, celebrates the beaches of the Caribbean that are central to singer-songwriter Kenny Chesney’s island life. Its flavors, like coconut, banana, and vanilla, remind Blue Chair Bay drinkers of the taste of beach vacations past, present, and future. It is in that spirit of freedom from day-to-day commitments and the joy of the company of good friends that Blue Chair Bay created this contest that invites its audience to imagine their best life. More appealing yet, it provides the winner the cash to enjoy that life for an aspirational “year off.”
In Spring 2017, Blue Chair Bay introduced a new product, Key Lime Rum Cream, with a unique flavor profile: fresh key lime and buttery notes and a graham cracker finish. Other varieties of Blue Chair Bay’s award-winning rum creams include Coconut Spiced and Banana.
