Captain James Cook's voyages in the 18th century included provisions of various supplies, including rum. On his first voyage (1768-1771), it is estimated that Cook carried around 1,000 gallons of rum for the crew. This was intended for both consumption and as a form of trade with Indigenous peoples encountered during his explorations. However, the exact amount could vary between voyages and depended on the specific provisions allocated for each journey.
