Mamajuana has a long history dating back to over 800 years. The original mamajuana drink was in the form of an herbal tea, which was discovered by the Taino Indians, which inhabited the Caribbean and the region known as Hispañola in the times prior to Christopher Columbus. It was used as a Vitality drink and as their answer to well being.

Today, Mamajuana or "Mama Juana" is a blend of exotic wild grown tree stems, barks, leaves and roots native to the Dominican Republic.  These herbs are typically cured with rum, wine, honey and other ingredients to produce a flavorful rum base liqueur.

The local residents refer to Mamajuana as the "Baby Maker" and "El Para Palo", which means Lift the Stick. The Dominicans say;

“Whatever tortures you – Mamajuana takes care of it”
Mamajuana herbs gives rum a unique, woodsy, chamomile, cinnamon and anis flavor. Mamajuana from the Dominican Republic is said to quickly energize and vitalize both men and women. A bottle of mamajuana herbs can be refilled with your favorite recipe over and over again. Use mamajuana cured rum for all your rum mixes. Makes a great after dinner liqueur.
