History

For generations, the Dominican Republic has produced the highest quality rums in small batches using artisanal distillation techniques with initial aging in American white oak barrels and finishing in French white oak cognac barrels. 

At the dawn of the 21st century, our master blender takes us in a new, cutting-edge direction in blending to achieve this noble expression, Rubirosa, a sophisticated and elegant rum, yet to be discovered.

Rum Rubirosa, was created as a tribute to the famous Dominican diplomat Porfirio Rubirosa, style icon and last great playboy of the 20th century. Among the jet set of the fifties, he was considered the "Most Interesting Man in the World".

Rubirosa was always ready for a cocktail. He played polo, loved women, flew planes, drove race cars, and searched for sunken treasure in the Caribbean. It's no wonder this man about town inspired Ian Fleming to create James Bond.
