Ron del Barrilito 3-Star is Puerto Rico’s classic aged sipping rum — rich, smooth, and sherry-influenced. Aged 6–10 years in Oloroso casks, it shows notes of almonds, raisins, vanilla, bananas, and oak spice. At 43% ABV, it’s bold yet refined, perfect neat, on the rocks, or as the backbone of elevated rum cocktails.
