Thread: Bay Rum Please

Does anyone know if there's a bay rum out there that has a little menthol in it? I love the smell of bay rum but don't like hot sting. I tend to prefer the cool blast of a Proraso style.

For menthol, Royall Bay Rhum all purpose lotion--it's my favorite bay rum and if you like the menthol of Proraso, it's for you. It's a bit on the pricey side; the best I've seen is through Amazon--about 30 for 8 oz., but you can get a two oz. for less. However, it's quality stuff.

Thanks for the recommends!

Sorry for the delay...

West Indian Bay Rum Original includes menthol in the ingredients...

West Indian Bay Rum Double Strength doesn't include menthol if memory serves correct. I don't have the original bottle of this anymore.

West Indian Bay Rum Mentholated must be swimming with the stuff but I haven't seen that in my local shop yet.

They're great for the price but I have no idea of availability in North America so this is probably of no help whatsoever to you! Good luck with your quest.

I get bay rum from a West Indian salon, one of them is double strength and one is normal. One has menthol and I think one doesn't. I'll take a look tonight and post what exactly it is for you...

McClas and Superior 70 both make mentholated versions of their bay rums.
