138 Proof of Hacienda History
Ron del Barrilito is Puerto Rico's oldest rum brand still in production — the Fernández family received Hacienda Santa Ana from the Spanish crown in 1787, and the rum was registered in 1880. This expression breaks the house's usual Oloroso-sherry pattern: it's aged two years in plain American white oak and bottled straight from the barrel at 138 proof. Reviewers keep reaching for the same words: exceptionally silky at a potency that has no business being smooth — burnt caramel, overripe banana, dried apricot, cinnamon and dark raisins, balancing out the moment water or ice hits. Browse the full rum selection at Del Mesa Liquor, and explore the flagship bottlings from Ron del Barrilito.
Tasting Notes
Burnt caramel, overripe banana and dried apricot on the nose. The palate unfolds ripe fruit, cinnamon, dark raisins and subtle oak — remarkably silky, culminating in a warm, lingering finish.
How to Enjoy
Treat it like a cask-strength whiskey: neat with a splash of water, or over one large cube. Also exceptional in a small-batch Ti' Punch or a stirred rum Old Fashioned.
