Every time friends leave after enjoying a week or a month at The Bahamas, I make sure that they bring home a piece of this island–something that lets them look back, and look forward to their next vacation. Just like these local Bahamas products.
Rum
There’s nothing I find more relaxing than sipping a glass of cold rum by the beach, talking to friends, and reminiscing life’s best moments.
Time flies so fast you can only wish that the night will be endless. And before you know it, it’s time to go home. Until next time.
Re-create those lovely Bahamian nights in your city home. Pack some Bahamian rum and replicate signature cocktails such as the Bahama Mama or Yellow Bird.
Conch Shell Jewelry
Bahamian salads, chowders, fritters, burgers, and gumbos are one in the world. Thanks to conch, a pinkish sea shell that is endemic to The Bahamas.
It tastes like the sea without the fishy smell. And it gives a unique texture to food.
Devouring conch leaves you with conch shells. And they happen to be pinkish and aesthetically pleasing.
Conch shells make beautiful necklaces and other jewelry that emphasizes dainty and feminine charms. It’s my favorite local Bahamas product.
Jams and Jellies
Tropical flavors sealed in a bottle! The Bahamian sun shines all year and gives life to sweet and juicy fruits.
We pick some of these and bottle them on the same day, so guests can take pleasure in fresh and natural flavors, even when they’re back at home.
Guava and Pineapple are the most abundant.
Graycliff Cigars
Graycliff Hotel holds the memory of European colonization in The Bahamas. Once home to the royals, the century-old mansion has maintained its grandeur.
Also built by the owners of Graycliff Hotel, Graycliff Cigar is a premium cigar brand back in the days. It remains a treasured commodity by cigar aficionados, lauded for its array of unique blends from the smooth and silky Chateau Grand Cru to the powerful Espresso.
Batiks
Lovely natural patterns inspired by diverse wildlife and vivid summer colors, the Androsia Batik creates the most fashionable summer wear.
Often sewn into fun summer dresses, the designs are very chic and modern while the material is uniquely Bahamian.
You can also take home some scarf that emanates warm summer feels in your home.
