Langs Jamaican Rum, the Caribbean alcohol brand that has "a long history of bringing a flavor of the Caribbean to Scotland," recently launched an "unhurried" staycation-inspired pop-up on Camusdarach Beach. The activation comes alongside a tropical launch and photoshoot on the shores for its new Langs [Banana](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/icee-banana-blast) Rum. The new offering features hints of toffee, notes of tropical fruit and an earthly aroma with an ABV of 37.5%.

Barbara Turing, innovation manager at [Ian Macleod Distillers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/edinburgh-gin-raspberry-collins), who own Langs Rum, commented on the activation, stating: “Although the rum shack is a Caribbean icon, it certainly won’t look out of place in this setting – the beach is spectacular. Our rum benefits from the best of both countries; the finest rum from Jamaica infused with natural banana flavor in Scotland. It’s a special relationship that’s created liquid sunshine in a bottle.””
