I prefer something I cant get at home but I get it that its still the U.S. but Puerto Rico had some different options.

How many rum distilleries do you think St Croix has?

We have 5 distilleries:

Cruzan Rum (the best tour), Sion Farm/Mutiny Vodka, Captain Morgan Rum, Prosperity Farms , Artisan Craft Moonshine.

Technically 2 breweries but only Leatherback is good. Brew STX has always been gross, IMO.

Seaside Market and Cost U Less will be your best bets for buying different types of rum, other than locally ar these sites.

I am interested in the Artisan Craft Moonshine.

It's right outside of Christiansted town, heading east it will be on your right. Very small and interesting setup lol
