About Brugal Colección Visionaria Edición 01, Cacao Rum
Crafted with love by Brugal & Co in sunny Puerto Plata, Brugal Colección Visionaria Edición 01, Cacao Rum is a testament to five generations of distilling expertise. It's all about the first of its kind Aromatic Cask Toasting Technique. Here, virgin European oak casks are toasted with Dominican cacao beans, infusing the wood with their captivating aromas. Once the beans are removed, the casks are ready for the rum, which is then aged under the Dominican sun. Bottled at a robust 90 proof, this rum is a treat for the senses. Imagine a deep, radiant amber liquid that smells of hot chocolate, toasted oak, spices, and citrus, balanced by subtle vanilla notes. On the palate, you'll find the sweetness of vanilla and caramel, mingling with rich dark chocolate, dried fruits, and a hint of toasted nuts, leading to a smooth and long-lasting finish with the toasted oak notes lingering even after the sweetness fades.

About Brugal
During the latter half of the 19th century, Andrés
Brugal Montaner — a Spanish expatriate who had emigrated to Cuba — uprooted his family and decided to take up permanent residence in the Dominican Republic. While in Cuba, Brugal had begun experimenting with the distillation of sugar cane, and upon his arrival in the Dominican Republic in 1888, Brugal opened the doors to Brugal & Co. Distillery.
Today, the fourth and fifth generations of Brugal's direct descendants continue to honor the memory of their ancestors by acting as personal guardians of the entire rum-making process at Brugal & Co. Brugal.
The Brugal family recipe is a closely guarded secret, preserved in the hearts of a privileged few, passed down from generation to generation. After going through the distillation process, Brugal Rums are aged for up to eight years in hand-picked American oak casks.
About Rum
Rum history allegedly started in the Carribiens in the 17th century when they started to ferment and distill molasses, a byproduct of sugar production. Most of the Rum is aged in oak or ex-wine casks, giving its color and flavor.
We distinguish between 4 different Rum categories, where white or unaged rum is mainly used in cocktails, while dark, spiced, and añejo (aged) rum are mostly enjoyed neat.
