BARATARIAN PIRATE RUM: Located off the coast of Louisiana, the Barataria Islands featured sandy beaches, palm trees, verdant oaks, oleander, lagoons, marshes, and dynamic tides accompanied by crashing waves. This region was once home to the "Baratarians," a group of pirates, privateers, and smugglers under the leadership of the infamous pirate Jean Lafitte, who governed his pirate kingdom from these islands between 1805 and 1817.

Inexpensive to produce and simple to transport, rum rapidly emerged as a significant asset to the Baratarian economy. As a key export globally, barrels of rum were commonly found on ships navigating the treacherous waters of the Caribbean, notorious for piracy. Jean Lafitte, showing no loyalty to any government, freely raided merchant ships, retaining the rum for his own use and offering it at reduced prices to the grateful citizens of New Orleans.

NO QUARTER: When Pirates hoisted the blood red flag it signified "No Quarter" given, meaning that no mercy would be shown, and no life would be spared. In contrast, a "Jolly Roger" or black flag meant that those who surrendered without a fight would be allowed to live. Once a battle began, if ordered by the Captain, the "Jolly Roger" was lowered and replaced with the "No Quarter" flag signifying the Pirates would now take no prisoners and give no quarter to their enemy...AYE!

KEEP CALM...DRINK RUM: Rum /rəm/ an alcoholic liquor distilled from sugar-cane residues or molasses. Rum was cheap to transport and became a staple export in the 1700's. This meant many of the ships attacked by pirates were laden with barrels of Rum, ripe for the taking. They could be sold for a pretty price, but pirates tended to drink a fair chunk of this kind of loot! In keeping the pirate spirit alive, raise your rum-filled glass and toast the wild swashbucklers who came before us!

JOLLY ROGER: The "Pirate Brand" has long been tied to the skull and crossbones. Historically, the skull and crossbones symbol was used by pirate ships to inform the targets they’re about to attack. Research has shown that the use of the expression “Jolly Roger” for pirate flags can be traced back to 1724 in Charles Johnson’s book, “A General History of the Pyrates”.
