Since its inception in 1988, the Classic has received generous support from our sponsors.
Before large sporting events were popular in Bermuda and Corporate Hospitality was common, trying to sell a new concept required a big leap of faith and we were delighted that the following shared our dream:
Pan Am Airlines
Transworld Oil
Pinnacle Reinsurance
Bank of Bermuda
Elbow Beach Hotel and
Seagrams.
Today we continue to receive generous support from our Major Sponsors:
Gosling's
Gosling’s Ltd. Has been around since the year ‘dot’, so it should not be a surprise that they have been a sponsor of the World Rugby Classic for many of those years. You will not have experienced the Classic without indulging in a Dark n’Stormy TM or two! Gosling’s is not only the provider of the Dark with Gosling’s Black Seal Rum ®; they also provide the Stormy with Gosling’s Stormy Ginger Beer ®, which adds a new twist to the expression “still waters run deep”; a subtle revelation after you have enjoyed their “South Shore”.
Stop by one of their two Hamilton retail stores; the Wine Shop on Dundonald Street, or their Flagship store on the corner of Front Street and Queen Street. Either location will show you the extent of their portfolio of wines, spirits and beers. With a temperature controlled wine cellar storage for their customers, an “Olde World” style tasting facility and free deliveries island-wide, you have a selection and customer service better than almost any cosmopolitan counterpart.
