Shoot, cockspur is my go to for Rum n Coke (not cuba libre). Ed this article mentioned UK but not US, did cockspur pull out of US as well?

[Edward Hamilton]

Cockspur was being bottled in Hood River Oregon, the town not the river, the last few years. Cockspur has moved their bottling operations back to Barbados so the product you'll be getting in a few months will be from Barbados.

Before being bottled in Hood River, Oregon Cockspur was bottled in Metairie, Louisiana.
