A UNIQUE DISCOVERY
We have unearthed a truly magnificent artisan Rum with Cask number 1 Rotation number R01917 from the family owned and operated distillery of Oliver y Oliver in Santo Domingo on the south coast of the Dominican Republic.
The islands rich history of sugar cane production stems back to Christopher Columbus and Rum making soon followed so expect this Dominican Republic Rum to be sophisticated and smooth with tones of crème brulee, vanilla and a delicate buttery finish.
The rich, dark colour of this Rum is a reflection of the many years it has spent maturing in wood. Originally placed into American Oak, ex-Bourbon casks this Rum remained in the Dominican Republic tropically ageing in the warm humidity of the Caribbean for eight years before being shipped to the cooler climate of the UK where it was re-casked into an ex-Rum cask for further maturation before being bottled by House of Rum in 2023.
DISTILLERY
Originating in Havana, Cuba, Oliver y Oliver's story traces its origins to the settlement of Juanillo Oliver, the forefather of the Oliver family. Following the Cuban revolution, the family sought refuge in Santo Domingo, and in 1997, Oliver y Oliver began their rum trading operations. With a distinct focus on crafting high-end rums that draw from both their Cuban roots and the Dominican Republic's rich rum-making heritage, the company has gained renown for its exceptional rum blends. Today, Oliver y Oliver boasts a diverse range of rums, including the prestigious brands Opthimus, Quorhum, and Punta Cana.
