Barcelo Gran Anejo, Dominican Republic, 37.5% (700ml)

Right in the heart of the Caribbean lies the Dominican Republic, the first permanent European settlement in the Americas. In 1929 Julián Barceló, born in Mallorca (Spain) immigrated to the Dominican Republic and the following year founded Barceló & Company, following his dream of producing one of the best rums on the island.

The optimum product was obtained by experimenting with different brands on the market and it wasn’t long before Julian began producing his very own rum and in 1950 the Ron Barceló branch was launched.

The brand quickly became a reference between local rums and one of the largest and most prestigious Dominican enterprises. Barceló Gran Añejo was launched in 1983 and is the bestselling premium rum in the Dominican Republic.

Tasting Notes: A step up from the standard-issue anejo, Barceló Gran Anejo is an exquisitely smooth, sweet Dominican rum with flavours of espresso beans and manuka honey. The Barceló Gran Anejo is the ideal mixer and works tremendously well in a variety of dark rum cocktails.
