Old Barco de Cargas XO Gran Reserva Navy Strength “Ron Barco” 70 cl. 60%

Rum and shipping are inextricably linked. Once upon a time, it was explorers like Columbus and European settlers who brought sugar cane to the New World. Later, slaves came to the colonies on their sailing ships to work on the plantations. They invented the alcoholic distillate that is now known as rum. It was also ships that brought sugar cane, sugar and later spirit back to the Old World. Indirectly, the Europeans invented the method of storing rum in oak barrels. And then, of course, we mustn’t forget the Royal British Navy: for centuries, the British government fed its marines a daily ration of rum. This is how the Navy Rum was born, which indirectly lives on in products such as the Old Barco de Cargas 15 Years Navy Strength Rum. The brand name Barco de Cargas picks up on the shipping and maritime trade of the past, because translated from Spanish it means container ship.
The fine Old Barco de Cargas 15 Years Navy Strength Rum goes a step further than its brother, which was also stored in oak barrels for 15 years. It was bottled as Navy Strength Rum and is therefore reminiscent of Cask Strength Rum. The high alcohol content ensures that this quality product is given plenty of respect and attention by the independent bottler. The high-proof Old Barco de Cargas 15 Years Navy Strength Rum is dark in color. It was distilled from molasses and, like many a top seller, embodies high-quality rum from Guatemala, which is produced and refined with great attention to detail.
