Distillery Information

Ron Barcel is a rum producer that was founded in the Dominican Republic in 1929. It makes a wide range of premium rums, including the Barcel Blanco, the Dorado, and an aged Aejo rum. The rum is produced entirely in the Dominican Republic, in line with the designation of origin requirements. Sugar cane is harvested locally and the juice fermented until it is approximately 8-percent proof. It is then distilled to a 95-percent proof spirit and aged in toasted American white oak barrels for a minimum of 12 months prior to blending. The company initially went under the name of Barcel & Co. and after exploring combinations of locally available rums, the Ron Barcel brand was eventually launched in 1950. Ron Barcel is now wholly owned by Ron Barcel SRL with third generation members of the Barcel family serving on the Board of Directors.
