Ron Barceló just introduced three new expressions: Barceló Imperial Porto Cask, Barceló Imperial Mizunara Cask and Barceló Imperial Maple Cask. This collection is part of their ultra-premium Rare Blends Collection, aged for an extended time in barrels from different latitudes, the company states.
These three unique blends are all crafted from cane fields in the Dominican Republic, following an aging process in oak barrels with varying degrees of toast.
Debuting first, Barceló Imperial Porto Cask undergoes additional aging in Tawny 10 port wine barrels from Portugal, the company states. Light and silky in style, each sip features aromas of fig, wild fruit jams, English butterscotch and dried cherries with a wood nose. Best enjoyed neat or chilled in a short glass, Barceló Imperial Porto Cask pairs well with fine cigars, aged cheeses, elegant desserts, dark chocolate and selected cuts of red meats.
Barceló Imperial Maple Cask boasts a dark amber-brown color with reddish tones. It presents aromas of melted caramel, plum, vanilla and maple honey, according to the company. Crafted using maple wood, the rum undergoes eight-to-ten years of aging in ex-bourbon casks, followed by an additional year in maple staves.
Barceló Imperial Mizunara Cask is the result of aging the brand’s rums in oak barrels with varying degrees of toast. Following the blend, Mizunara Cask undergoes further aging in virgin Japanese oak barrels, the company states. The liquid has an amber color with coppery hints with notes of vanilla, sandalwood, coconut and ginger.
Barceló Imperial Porto Cask is now available at select fine wine and spirits retailers across the U.S. with an SRP of $59.99. Barceló Imperial Maple Cask and Barceló Imperial Mizunara Cask will launch later in 2024, according to the company.
