Ron Barcelo Imperial
Award winning rum from Ron Barcelo, which was awarded by the prestigious Beverage Testing Institute of Chicago as the best rum in the world, carrying the badge of being the first rum to get the highest score in the history of this institute: 97/100. Bright coppery amber colour. Aromas of cream butter, dried cherries, intensive vanilla, pineapple jam and caramelized walnuts followed by a soft entry into a dry but fruity, medium and lush body with great depth and balance. It ends with a carrot cake ice cream taste, cola nut, mocha and a robust roasted flavour that slowly dissipates. The Imperial Barcelo was introduced in 1980 as their top bottle in the range at the time. Ron Barcelo is a family run firm that was established in 1929 but it was not until 1950 before rum was coming out of their doors.
Trevethan Cornish Rum Distiller's Cut
Distiller’s Cut Rum marks the launch of Trevethan’s exclusive small-batch series, handcrafted and blended with precision in Cornwall. Limited to just 250 bottles per release, each edition offers a distinctive flavour profile shaped by carefully chosen oak casks and traditional ageing techniques. The inaugural bottling is a light gold rum matured in ex-Oloroso sherry quarter casks. This unique ageing process imparts vibrant notes of soft banana and citrus, layered with rich raisin, orange zest, and a subtle warmth of ginger drawn from the sherry wood. Elegant and well-balanced, Distiller’s Cut Rum is ideal for summer cocktails or enjoyed neat over ice. A refined choice for rum enthusiasts seeking character, craftsmanship, and limited-edition appeal.
