Ron del Barrilito - 2 Star Rum 750ml

Ron Del Barrilito Two Stars Rum is a brilliant introduction to the oldest active rum brand in Puerto Rico. Produced by the Fernandez family at Hacienda Santa Ana, this authentic spirit has been crafted the exact same way since 1880.

While many modern brands use added sugar and artificial caramel color to cut corners, this rum relies entirely on traditional methods. The production team uses sustainably harvested rainwater and an ancient maceration process. They infuse a small batch of rum with a secret blend of dried fruits and spices to build incredible depth. The liquid then ages for three to five years in vintage white oak barrels that previously held fine Oloroso sherry in Spain. Finally, every bottle is labeled and packed entirely by hand.

In the glass, it shows a beautiful, natural bronze hue. The nose offers bright aromas of fresh plum, apricot, toasted almond, and warm vanilla. Subtle smoky wood notes linger in the background. On the palate, it reveals a light to medium body that drinks incredibly smooth at forty three percent alcohol. Flavors of caramelized fruit and sweet sugar cane lead into a delicate, long oak finish.

Whether poured neat, served over ice, or mixed into a premium cocktail, this versatile small batch rum easily outshines heavier competitors. It is a fantastic, authentic choice for both casual sipping and expert mixology.
