Rum is part of the heart and soul of the Dominican Republic

THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC

The Dominican Republic is located on the island of Hispaniola in The Caribbean, which it shares with Haïti. The country is well known for its happy people, floral nature and warm climate. 

Sugar production started centuries ago, after Columbus brought sugar cane sprouts from the Canary Islands to the Dominican Republic on his second voyage in 1493. Not long thereafter, rum production started in the country, although on a small scale.  The professional rum industry started around the mid-19th century.

Nowadays, rums from The Dominican Republic are enjoyed all over the world. The country is especially famous for its soft aged rums, which are a result of the long ageing processes in the

tropical Caribbean climate.

RUM AND CIGARS

Countries like Cuba, Nicaragua and The Dominican Republic are not only amongst the best rum producing countries, but they also produce the best cigars in the world. 

For many people, Cuba has the reputation to be the original premium cigar maker, but tobacco for cigars was first cultivated in the Dominican Republic, where cigar production started centuries ago. And due to the embargo on Cuban products in the United States after the communist revolution in 1959, many of the best cigar makers fled Cuba... to the Dominican Republic.

 

Premium Dominican rums go very well with a good cigar. Especially rums like Ron Alegró XO, which have spent many years in wooden casks in the tropical climate of the Caribbean. 

The gentle hints of vanilla in the rum, combined with the smoky tobacco flavors of a premium cigar, are a guarantee for an enjoyable moment
