Banks DIH Rum Factory Executive, Gregory Garraway said the award highlights the brand’s commitment to delivering premium quality to consumers.

“Monde’s selection is a globally renowned benchmark – a gold medal from them signals absolute perfection in taste, aroma and craftsmanship. This international recognition belongs entirely to the dedicated employees of the rum factory. Your patience, precision and hard work, made this achievement possible.

He said every rum product created by Banks DIH begins with premium alcohol, aged to perfection in oak bourbon barrels. Each bottle, Garraway said, carries a distinct character that reflects its precise age and our commitment to quality and innovation.

By earning this added distinction, Banks DIH’s rum and vodka have joined a select group of products internationally recognized for their superior quality.

Garraway said the achievement strengthens Banks DIH Limited’s reputation in both the domestic and international markets, enhancing brand credibility while opening new opportunities for growth, visibility, and strategic partnerships.

“To every employee of Banks DIH Limited, these gold medals are the result of us working together towards our mission statement that is we are committed to building on our tradition of excellence by providing quality products and services, financial results, and management performance that meets the interest of our stakeholders, employees, customers, suppliers and the communities in which we operate,” Garraway said.
