The Barceló Imperial Rare Blends Porto Cask is a special bottling from the Dominican Republic that combines the matured style of Barceló Imperial with additional ageing in port casks. This edition forms part of Barceló’s Rare Blends Collection, in which selected matured distillates are given their own distinctive character through the use of different types of cask. The foundation is the Dominican rum style characteristic of the brand, whose maturation under tropical conditions allows for an intense interaction between the distillate and the wood. For the Porto Cask Edition, a targeted secondary ageing takes place in casks that previously contained port wine. This additional contact with the casks enhances the mature character with a pronounced fruity note and lends the bottling extra depth and complexity.

Behind Ron Barceló lies a traditional Dominican brand whose history dates back to the 1930s. With the Imperial Rare Blends series, Barceló places particular emphasis on the influence of special cask maturations. In the Barceló Imperial Rare Blends Porto Cask, the classic Imperial style meets the characteristics of former port wine casks, resulting in an interesting combination of tropical maturation and European cask culture. With an alcohol content of 40 per cent, the 0.7-litre bottle is presented at a classic drinking strength. This Barceló Imperial with a Port Cask finish is therefore aimed particularly at lovers of matured Caribbean rums and connoisseurs who wish to compare different cask finishes within a single series.
