About this product
Silky, rich, and exquisitely balanced.
Ron Barceló Imperial is the crown jewel of the Dominican Republic’s most respected rum house. Aged up to 10 years in a combination of ex-bourbon and French oak casks, it offers a smooth, luxurious experience with notes of toffee, dried fruit, and warm oak spice. Made entirely from Dominican sugarcane juice — not molasses — this is a rum of purity, depth, and distinction.
Whether you sip it neat or stir it into a refined cocktail, Barceló Imperial delivers elegance in every pour — a premium choice now gaining traction in Ireland’s growing rum scene.
Why we love it:
This is sipping rum with serious style — smooth enough to enjoy neat but versatile enough to use in elevated cocktails. With its rich texture and balanced sweetness, Barceló Imperial is a fantastic alternative to whisky or cognac, and an impressive gift for any spirits enthusiast in Ireland.
