The nationally known Capt. Morgan Rum now made in Puerto Rico was
originally a medicinal tonic made in Jamaica. I believe it was made by
the Levy Brothers firm in Kingston before it was bought by Seagrams
tycoon Sam Bronfman who relocated production to obtain the benefit of
lower taxation for sales to the States.

I wonder if those downtown Levy Brothers had a connection with Charles?
