Ron Barceló - Imperial Onyx

Ron Barceló - Imperial Onyx

Dominican Republic

Just like the other rums by this brand from the Dominican Republic, Ron Barceló Imperial Onyx is made from 100% Dominican sugarcane juice rather than molasses. Its Imperial Onyx has aged for 10 years in ex-bourbon barrels with a heavy char. However, there’s an innovative twist that sets this rum apart. After the initial aging period, Ron Barceló Imperial Onyx is filtered through onyx stones to obtain a rum “with intense, deep notes and a unique character.”

Ron Colón - Red Banana Oleo

Ron Colón - Red Banana Oleo

El Salvador

The initial inspiration for this creation came from seeing the red banana trees growing on the Jags Head Coffee Farms in El Salvador. The large leaves give shade to the fragile coffee cherries. The bananas are soft and have a sweet flavor when ripe. They taste like a regular banana, but with a hint of raspberry sweetness. So the quest for the perfect banana flavored Rum started. And Ron Colón went on to create our own Red Banana Oleo Rum.

Plantation - Original Dark

Plantation - Original Dark

Caribbean Islands

Plantation Rum is an artisanal range of rums from the great terroirs of the tropics, founded by Alexandre Gabriel.

While the rum from Barbados has aged for 1 to 3 years, the Jamaican rum has spent 10 to 15 years in wooden casks. After a final period of aging in a wooden vat in France, Plantation Original Dark is born – a rich and intense style representative of the best Jamaica and Barbados have to offer.

Brugal - Extra Viejo

Brugal - Extra Viejo

Dominican Republic

Brugal Extra Viejo is an experience, and to sip it will make any day a little more special. Don Andres Brugal Montaner had one dream: to perfect the art of rum-making. That’s how he came to move to the Dominican Republic in 1888. Currently the 5th generation of the Brugal family ensures that the high standards set by their forefather are being met. Brugal Extra Viejo is a blend of two different rums. One part has aged for three to eight years in barrels of American oak, another part two to three years in Pedro Ximénez sherry barrels. The result is a clean and smooth spirit that you won’t soon forget.

Traditionally, they still work in the English style with copper pot stills, in which they distil twice. Eclipse is named after the total solar eclipse and the appearance of the comet Halley in 1910. The roasted ex-bourbon casks also have light smoke notes.
