Rum from Puerto Rico, this bottling from Edmundo B. Fernandez, Inc. carries the 3 Star designation in the Ron del Barrilito range. It comes from a Caribbean tradition where aged rum is treated with the same patience and care given to fine spirits elsewhere, and the producer has been a fixture of the island's rum-making for generations.
Aged rum in this style tends toward warm, mellow character, with the smoothness that time in barrel brings and a sipping quality that rewards slow attention. It works neat or over a single large cube, where the texture and depth have room to open up, and it also holds its own in a classic rum cocktail when you want a base with real backbone.
