About this product
A Journey Through Time and Taste.
Relicario Superior is more than a rum – it is a tribute to Dominican heritage, crafted to reflect the island’s centuries-old traditions of patience, craftsmanship, and passion. Its very name, Relicario (meaning “reliquary”), evokes the sense of something precious, preserved, and passed down across generations.
This rum is a carefully balanced blend of Dominican rums aged between 5 and 10 years in American oak barrels. The result is a spirit of remarkable smoothness and elegance, where rich aromas of dried fruit, honey, and vanilla mingle with notes of toasted oak and gentle spice. The tropical climate of the Dominican Republic accelerates the maturation process, creating depth and complexity that shine through with every sip.
Relicario Superior is the kind of rum that invites slow enjoyment – whether savoured neat, with ice, or in an elevated cocktail. For rum lovers in Ireland, it’s a chance to experience an authentic expression of the Dominican Republic, combining warmth, refinement, and a sense of history in every bottle.
Why we love it:
Relicario Superior is more than just a rum—it’s a story bottled. Crafted from rums aged between 5 and 10 years in the Dominican Republic, it’s a harmonious marriage of tropical richness and balanced elegance. The careful maturation in oak barrels delivers a smooth, complex profile that works beautifully for slow sipping, yet remains versatile for creative cocktails. For Irish rum lovers, it’s a little taste of the tropics without leaving home.
