Ron “El Rumbo” began its Journey in the sun-drenched sugar cane fields of Cuba, it is here that formed it’s character. Distilled in one of the Islands oldest distilleries, the molasses settles in for the first year of aging of the "Aguardiente" ( Aqua Vitae). This is followed by two more years in American Oak barrels, after which “its course” is set. The course ( El Rumbo) it takes brings it across the Atlantic to Snowdonia Distillery in Wales, famous for its Foragers premier gins and renowned for its pure mountain waters. Awaiting the arrival of the rum are freshly emptied Cognac casks seeping with the richness of the previous spirit. From there the Cuban rum will then be transferred to these hulking great barrels whose spirited perfume fills the air! It rests and embraces the characteristics of the host for a period just long enough to adopt the elusive mystery of the cognac. When it emerges from these sleepy months it is bottled at 50% ABV. From the sun-drenched sugar cane fields of Cuba to the pure landscape of Snowdonia, El Rumbo is sure to take you on an adventure! The Course is set, join us.
