Description: In 1787 the Spanish Crown bestowed Hacienda Santa Ana in Bayamón, Puerto Rico to the Fernández family. In 1871 Pedro Fernández returned to Hacienda Santa Ana after studying engineering in France, where he learned about the process of crafting aged spirits. After perfecting his craft, Pedro Fernández produced the formula and process used to make Ron del Barrilito. The name came to be because the rum was initially served straight from a little barrel, or “barrilito” in Spanish. Ron del Barrilito is made by following the same process they’ve been using for over a century.
Ron del Barriltio is made without the use of added sugars, artificial flavorings, or caramel coloring. In a time when consumers care about about the quality and craftmanship of what they consume, Ron del Barrilito is poised to be a rum of choice when sipping neat or in cocktails. We have already seen this to be true within tequila and there is no doubt this trend may turn to permanence with Tequila and other spirits categories as well.
The 2-Star Rum is an impeccable blend of rums aged between 3 and 5 years in “Oloroso” white oak barrels. Makes wonderful classic cocktails and can be served neat.
